I have both the Nook and the Kindle. Both are solid machines. The advantage the Nook has over the kindle is that subscriptions are tied to your account, not to your specific device. I lost all my archived magazines when my Kindle broke - you can download them again, but you can't access them because they are keyed to your kindle. So, I canceled my subscriptions with the Kindle and switched them to the Nook. Right now, I am getting Quilter's World electronically, but to my computer rather than the Nook. I'm trying one craft subscription (Cardmaker) to see how that goes.
Pdf files - I just can't read most of them. I've scanned in older quilt magazine pages and it's just too hard to read them on either the Nook or the Kindle. I will stick with a netbook or Ipad for that.
I can't see converting all my quilting stuff to electronics though. I like to page through stuff and when I want to reduce, I rip apart the magazines and put them in sleeves in my quilting ideas book. Can't do your electronics like that.
