I use to have a Kendle,loved it but left it at the auto shop and never got it back. Someone just took it and did not return it. Don't know what good it will do them as it is registered to me and I immdatley closed the amazon account

I have the Kindle and I just love it. I have the one where you can download books from anywhere and you do not have to be connected to a computer, worth the extra money. I'm sure whatever one you choose, you'll love it. Good luck.

I am an avid reader, and am never ( I do mean never) without at least 1 book. I was surprised and thrilled when I got a kindle for Christmas. I now have about a hundred books downloaded, and as I finish reading, it goes to an archive, so I can read it again later, if I choose. It is a lot lighter and easier to carry than lugging around a hundred books :) I love it so much, now I am never without my kindle. I like the fact that I can read outside without the sun glare. I could go on and on, but basically, just do some research to find out which e-reader is right for you. (The kindle comes in both a 6-inch and 9-inch screen). Whichever one you choose, you will enjoy it a lot.

My kids got me a kindle and I love it. The only thing I dont like is that I cant download books from the library because I guess that amazon wont allow it. Kinda wishing I had asked for a book nook because I could have downloaded all the library books I wanted online. Its just like checking out books with your card.

I love my kindle - My DIL has the Nook and really likes it - I would spend some time looking at what is out there - The Kindle just dropped its price again to $114 - I really like the non-glare screen and ease of use. It really depends what Bells and Whistles you want.
