Nook Color MightyYT Send a noteboard - 23/06/2011 07:06:35 AM
Easy to use. Lots of space. Adjustable back light so you can read at night and during the day. Can do some music files, so you can listen to music while reading (or audiobooks at other times.) It has limited video file capability so you could theoretically watch movies (though I haven't tried really, I know it doesn't do .wmv files). It has a slot of SD cards to increase storage space. AND you can browse the web with wifi or home networks. I frequently browse RAFO.

But my favorite is that I can shop Barnesandnoble.com using it and download straight to the Nook.


EDIT: Also does TONS more file types than the Kindle, so it doesn't matter as much what file type your book or document is in to read.
Castle: This is so weird. I dressed up as him for Halloween.

Beckett: Me too.

Kindle or Nook and why? *NM* Francie - 23/06/2011 04:40:53 AM 868 Views
Kindle. callandor1000 - 23/06/2011 06:29:52 AM 910 Views

I think that is good advice. everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:44:24 AM 1013 Views

Nook Color MightyYT - 23/06/2011 07:06:35 AM 1041 Views
Nook e-ink touchscreen. Doesn't have the idiocy of the Amazon DRM, and it's conveniently shaped. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 07:27:20 AM 461 Views
I am very interested in this one random thoughts - 23/06/2011 02:02:44 PM 954 Views
I used the one at Barnes and Noble, yeah. Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:32:19 PM 913 Views
It's awesome. I rarely use the physical buttons. Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:35:36 PM 859 Views

Yeah, but the Amazon ebooks themselves have terrible DRM. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:33:56 PM 462 Views
but is the advantage of the Kindle? random thoughts - 23/06/2011 04:33:58 PM 904 Views
I picked a NOOK LadyLorraine - 23/06/2011 11:48:57 AM 1049 Views

ohhhhhhh. Thank you! I'll have to look! LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 10:47:08 AM 988 Views
This question is relevant to my interests beetnemesis - 23/06/2011 12:40:32 PM 887 Views
color e-ink would be awesome LadyLorraine - 23/06/2011 01:10:32 PM 846 Views
I would guess mechanics random thoughts - 23/06/2011 01:56:11 PM 925 Views
They have color e-ink, it is just expensive Roland00 - 23/06/2011 02:29:45 PM 1033 Views
Yeah, it's depressing. beetnemesis - 23/06/2011 03:36:02 PM 827 Views
Get a nook color or ipad if you want to read comic books Roland00 - 23/06/2011 02:33:13 PM 923 Views

Paper, because there are some things that outweigh convenience. *NM* Macharius - 23/06/2011 03:55:06 PM 457 Views
Like nostalgic adherence to needlessly outdated media! Mmm... papyrus scrolls. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:37:08 PM 435 Views
Nostalgia has nothing to do with it. Macharius - 23/06/2011 05:48:27 PM 951 Views
+1 *NM* Yunalesca - 23/06/2011 06:19:34 PM 446 Views
there are advantages to the ebook format as well LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:05:41 AM 987 Views
Oh, definitely. Macharius - 24/06/2011 03:02:51 PM 982 Views
You did say you knew they were convienent LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 02:21:18 AM 1040 Views
What a snobby and pretentious comment. Thank you for contributing nothing to the conversation. *NM* everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:50:55 AM 446 Views
This, coming from someone who posts primarily to antagonize the member Republicans? *NM* Macharius - 24/06/2011 02:17:12 PM 450 Views
Conspiracy much? I hardly do that. *NM* everynametaken - 26/06/2011 06:29:28 AM 451 Views
Actually, his comment makes sense. Amyrlin - 29/06/2011 07:26:29 PM 896 Views
I'm sorry, but it does not make sense. LadyLorraine - 30/06/2011 02:02:14 AM 885 Views
Yes, you are correct. everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:34:34 AM 968 Views
Not at all. *NM* everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:30:15 AM 445 Views

I don't think it's accurate to say real books will never be obsolete. Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 03:01:16 AM 798 Views
Why did you even respond in this post? You contributed nothing to the conversation. *NM* everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:53:00 AM 389 Views
Doesn't the same go for your replies to her and Macharius as well? snoopcester - 24/06/2011 11:46:43 AM 883 Views
it's a never ending cycle of irrelevancy O.O LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:53:54 AM 789 Views
Re: Doesn't the same go for your replies to her and Macharius as well? TaskmasterJack - 25/06/2011 01:51:04 AM 821 Views
because i like to remind people that e-books are bollocks? *NM* Yunalesca - 24/06/2011 04:11:07 PM 423 Views
what are your experiences that make you think so? *NM* LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 02:27:23 AM 425 Views
My goodness... Amyrlin - 29/06/2011 07:29:19 PM 939 Views
Y'know, normally I would agree... Wulf`gar - 29/06/2011 10:16:39 PM 1391 Views
^ This ^ *NM* LadyLorraine - 30/06/2011 02:04:27 AM 415 Views

Exactly. *NM* everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:36:18 AM 485 Views
I used to be like that... Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:33:04 PM 979 Views
Have you used an ereader for an extended period of time? *NM* Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 03:01:47 AM 415 Views
no, and i don't want too either Yunalesca - 25/06/2011 11:56:12 AM 819 Views
so basically.. LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 03:25:53 PM 833 Views
...I hope you have a child who refuses to try new foods. *NM* Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 06:38:24 PM 398 Views
im never gonna have kids, your point is moot *NM* Yunalesca - 26/06/2011 12:39:49 AM 448 Views

man I wish I had the money to upgrade! LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:08:21 AM 773 Views
It is. They literally fixed EVERYTHING I had issues with in the 1st one. Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:13:52 PM 797 Views
I chose Nook. everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:41:11 AM 1110 Views
Amazon locking you into their format was one of the things that pushed me to the NOOK *NM* Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:30:23 PM 426 Views
Probably a good call- Borders has been circling the drain for a while *NM* beetnemesis - 29/06/2011 01:09:37 PM 420 Views
