Kindle V. Nook

[maiella]

I'm looking to get an e-reader. I've read some stuff online, but if anyone has one will they please post their comments. My main concern of course will be which one will publishing companies endorse. I don't want to buy HD-DVD when Blu-Ray wins.

Barnes and Noble= large book store that has sold books for like forever

Kindle=most gifted item ever


I call it a tie


the nook hardware is nicer (android screen is sweet)

I personally don't own one of these e-readers, but I think this is a pretty good guide to the current models. One of my floormates owns a Kindle, I'll go give him a talking to.

I personally like the Nook. I've never used either though, this is just by looks and specs.

But I'd wait for color e-ink. That's just me though.

My mom has a kindle, and its pretty neat. If all you want to do is straight up reed books then the kindle is perfectly fine. It has no extra features, and the interface is made for people that can barely manage technology


I just think that the nook's android powered screen looks really cool.
