There is a cheap version coming out just now for $114. It comes with advertisements though.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09186491465911432817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073226012013539726.post-70819976165148164702011-04-15T11:14:15.264+02:002011-04-15T11:14:15.264+02:00I have not tried either.

You can also put your own Audible books on it, and you can transfer a lot of EBooks to your Kindle from various places around the web as long as they're in .mobi format. I LOVE my Kindle.<br />The other suggestion I have is to get an IPhone, because you can download all the EReader apps for the IPhone, without actually having to own the devices. So on your IPhone, you can have the BNook app, the Kindle app, etc., and then all you have to buy is the books. Apple's IPhone also has the IBooks app with its own bookstore store which is wonderful. And another friend of mine has an app for her IPhone called Stanza, and she loves it.<br />So I would say buy a Kindle, and IPhone, or both if you possibly can.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073226012013539726.post-10795010398543494972011-04-15T03:04:48.176+02:002011-04-15T03:04:48.176+02:00I would definitely recommend a Kindle.

I don't know if that is still true. I have never had any trouble buying books on my Kindle from HK. <br /><br />The page looks just like paper and does not cause the sort of eye strain that can happen with a backlit screen. If you want to watch movies, play games, and access other media you should go for the iPad, but if you only want to read nothing beats the Kindle.Shannon Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17375300716238391523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073226012013539726.post-86981249255059394792011-04-15T02:55:50.200+02:002011-04-15T02:55:50.200+02:00Hello,

For that I prefer the pages so I can write notes, etc. You can do that on the kindle too but naah, I want paper. <br />Manzanita<br />Wanna buy a duckManzanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06467261212623663365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073226012013539726.post-39428009245888119992011-04-15T01:52:24.241+02:002011-04-15T01:52:24.241+02:00I love my Kindle.

I seem to remember they used to sell one for use outside the US, but perhaps that has changed.<br /><br />The ability to listen to audio books or your own music is nice too. I can put in PDFs of my own novels to proof as well as other things.<br /><br />It's light and has an easy to read screen. If you read in low light, you will need a book light. iPads are awesome for all sorts of things not related to book reading. They are a bit heavier so my carpal tunnel prefers the Kindle.KM Nallehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714392426676743868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073226012013539726.post-12163040968292862482011-04-15T00:29:07.987+02:002011-04-15T00:29:07.987+02:00I would love an iPad, but know that is out of reac...I would love an iPad, but know that is out of reach.

It's extremely useful for writing/reading related endeavors.<br /><br />The Ipad is cool as well, and if you want to do more than read, and you don't mind getting distracted with all its different functions (like games, various applications, etc), then this might be something you can go for. <br /><br />So i guess if you want something just for reading go for the kindle. If you want a mini computer in your hands--go for the ipad. :P<br /><br />nutschell<br />www.thewritingnut.comnutschellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10967710710805174781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073226012013539726.post-40682331073395598922011-04-14T22:34:20.150+02:002011-04-14T22:34:20.150+02:00I have a Kindle and am pretty happy with it... but...I have a Kindle and am pretty happy with it... but I drool over the iPad.

They are amazing.<br /><br />Now I do currently have a kindle and it's great too. For the money it gives you everything you want for a reader.<br /><br />IPAD is top it does more and if you want a devise that does EVERYTHING then that is the one for you.<br /><br />I hope this helps.Michael Di Gesuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17047267262428143113noreply@blogger.com
