I have the Nook 3G and the Nook color and love, love, love it. For me it's easy to read, I can sort them onto different shelves for organizations. I can read day time or night time; the light makes no difference at all. I can put music, pdf's movies on my color etc. I have an organizer on it so that I can keep my bills and schedule right there and update as needed and I get great support in the local Barnes and Noble stores.
