Since we're unemployed here, can't afford to buy books anymore. Though lately I've been focusing more on the stacks of books I've accumulated around the house. It's nice to see technology becoming more affordable. Take care.TARYTERREhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14620999913159718018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-44454790836494291522011-11-04T12:28:46.028-05:002011-11-04T12:28:46.028-05:00I'm waiting for the day when they give them aw...I'm waiting for the day when they give them away like free toasters.Ms Martyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16996078255731307805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-14655411997446210762011-11-04T11:52:20.728-05:002011-11-04T11:52:20.728-05:00I love my Nook.

It doesn't work on my Nook and I didn't see any built in lights when I bought my cover.

Those cheaper Kindles have ads on them and you can't change your 'wallpaper' to any picture you want, and also with the Kindle you can't buy books from other stores. With the Nook you can buy from Barnes&Noble, but also from the Sony store and many smaller publishers. That's because the Nook uses epub (which is a more 'open' file type) The kindle won't do epubs without jumping thru a couple of hoops, and the Kindle books are their very own proprietary file format.<br /><br />Also, go to stores and hold the e-reader you are thinking of getting. They all have slight differences in weight, etcAstarythhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02477586487296992808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-12107126080409567972011-11-04T07:22:54.014-05:002011-11-04T07:22:54.014-05:00I got the Kindle because it was a gift.

Books are wonderful and I do enjoy a lot of the free ones from Amazon.
