What is your favorite Ereader? (play, download)

[Three Wolves In Snow]

I have a Kindle...both the K2 and the K3, (not named the K3 officially), the graphite with wi-fi and 3G.

I absolutely love it.

I did do a side by side comparison with a Nook in B&N some time back and while the Nook had some things that were cool, overall, I preferred the Kindle for it's ease in navigation and, at the time, much longer battery life.

I bought an e-reader to read, not do other things so, hands down for me, it's the Kindle.

My favorite are actual books.

Three Wolves: What are some of the "cool" things you saw on the Nook?

One thing that the nook does that (at least my mom's kindles) dont do is a Lend Me feature so my other nook friends can read some of my books and the Tablet also reads some of the kids books aloud.

I was a long time hold out (I like paper books) but the wife has had a Kindle for a while.

I check the Amazon deal of the day on a pretty frequent basis and they had a reconditioned Kindle Fire for $139 which I ordered for her. A few months later they ran another special on reconditioned Fire's for $139 (normal $169) so now I have my own. Too many plus's to even consider a Nook, and iPads are waaaaaaaay to expensive.

Also have the Kindle app on my Android phone which syncs with where I am in a book on the Kindle Fire.

I just received a little silver Sony e-Reader from a friend (PRS-350, the smallest one) with a nice e-Ink display and a touch screen.

I'm impressed!

I may pick up one of the new backlit Nooks at some point, but for now I'm quite pleased with this little reader and the stuff I can grab from Project Gutenberg.

That depends on what kind of material I'm reading.

For comics, digital magazines, some PDFs, etc...I prefer my iPad.

But for regular books I very strongly prefer my Kindle. If the book is good then I could easily be reading for several hours at a time. The Kindle's long battery life and e-ink display (easier on my eyes) are well suited for long sessions.

Never used the Kindle Fire, and my experience w/ Nook is limited to a brief time with the store display at B&N.

I have the Kindle 2, e-ink and no backlight is great imo. I use it only as a reader, and really never want to read an "analog" book again.

I'm with you at this point. There's not much easier than opening a book.

I bought a Kindle Touch just today and can't figure out how to turn the stupid thing off. Absolutely no instruction manual came with it. I press the button that one would assume is the on/off button and still have the menu screen.

I'm taking it back to Best Buy tomorrow. I'll try another one. I don't want to give up just yet.

And I've bought and downloaded 2 books, so they'd better transfer without a lot of poking around. I am not a happy poker.
