If you just want an eReader, the Kindle is probably your best bet. We got our daughter one for Christmas and she absolutely loves it. I had the iPad and use it for books, but I don't read it for long periods of time.marcihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563177022571921240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288427018568212318.post-34290110084547715992011-01-16T15:37:09.617-06:002011-01-16T15:37:09.617-06:00I got a color nook for Christmas.

I sit all day working on a PC, so I don't want to use one for reading. I am an avid reader and I just love the feel of paper in my hands. My husband was going to get me one and I told him thank you, but no. Just my opinion - LOL!<br /><br />Elaine AllenElaine Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10596719938318233062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288427018568212318.post-86419466968666421722011-01-15T14:16:51.015-06:002011-01-15T14:16:51.015-06:00I bought a Nook right after Christmas.

On the upside, I also wanted it when I travel as it gives you access to the net. So far I'm happy with it. It is not as user friendly as the Kindle, but still, it's in color!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02204241151062260650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288427018568212318.post-35649837153240917022011-01-15T14:14:23.674-06:002011-01-15T14:14:23.674-06:00I have been considering a Kindle for a while but c...I have been considering a Kindle for a while but can't get past the feel (and the smell) of a new actual, real-life book.....call me old fashioned but I can't help it!!!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01871392831309352859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288427018568212318.post-64636563948298569412011-01-15T13:49:20.552-06:002011-01-15T13:49:20.552-06:00Biaggi's without me AGAIN!! and I was less th...Biaggi's without me AGAIN!! and I was less than a mile away. Hope you had the White Chocolate Bread Pudding. No, I hope you DIDN'T!! I highly recommend a Nook. Had mine for a year and love it. Just sorry that they came out with a color version a year later.
