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 902 Views
Kindle. callandor1000 - 23/06/2011 06:29:52 AM 963 Views

Nook Color MightyYT - 23/06/2011 07:06:35 AM 1092 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 492 Views
I am very interested in this one random thoughts - 23/06/2011 02:02:44 PM 1005 Views
I used the one at Barnes and Noble, yeah. Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:32:19 PM 968 Views
It's awesome. I rarely use the physical buttons. Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:35:36 PM 923 Views

Yeah, but the Amazon ebooks themselves have terrible DRM. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:33:56 PM 492 Views
but is the advantage of the Kindle? random thoughts - 23/06/2011 04:33:58 PM 969 Views
I picked a NOOK LadyLorraine - 23/06/2011 11:48:57 AM 1111 Views

ohhhhhhh. Thank you! I'll have to look! LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 10:47:08 AM 1053 Views
This question is relevant to my interests beetnemesis - 23/06/2011 12:40:32 PM 948 Views
color e-ink would be awesome LadyLorraine - 23/06/2011 01:10:32 PM 907 Views
I would guess mechanics random thoughts - 23/06/2011 01:56:11 PM 992 Views
They have color e-ink, it is just expensive Roland00 - 23/06/2011 02:29:45 PM 1100 Views
Yeah, it's depressing. beetnemesis - 23/06/2011 03:36:02 PM 895 Views
Get a nook color or ipad if you want to read comic books Roland00 - 23/06/2011 02:33:13 PM 983 Views

Paper, because there are some things that outweigh convenience. *NM* Macharius - 23/06/2011 03:55:06 PM 485 Views
Like nostalgic adherence to needlessly outdated media! Mmm... papyrus scrolls. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:37:08 PM 466 Views
Nostalgia has nothing to do with it. Macharius - 23/06/2011 05:48:27 PM 1009 Views
+1 *NM* Yunalesca - 23/06/2011 06:19:34 PM 474 Views
there are advantages to the ebook format as well LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:05:41 AM 1046 Views
Oh, definitely. Macharius - 24/06/2011 03:02:51 PM 1046 Views
You did say you knew they were convienent LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 02:21:18 AM 1107 Views
What a snobby and pretentious comment. Thank you for contributing nothing to the conversation. *NM* everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:50:55 AM 481 Views
This, coming from someone who posts primarily to antagonize the member Republicans? *NM* Macharius - 24/06/2011 02:17:12 PM 482 Views
Conspiracy much? I hardly do that. *NM* everynametaken - 26/06/2011 06:29:28 AM 480 Views
Actually, his comment makes sense. Amyrlin - 29/06/2011 07:26:29 PM 947 Views
I'm sorry, but it does not make sense. LadyLorraine - 30/06/2011 02:02:14 AM 945 Views
Yes, you are correct. everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:34:34 AM 1030 Views
Not at all. *NM* everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:30:15 AM 475 Views

I don't think it's accurate to say real books will never be obsolete. Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 03:01:16 AM 863 Views
Why did you even respond in this post? You contributed nothing to the conversation. *NM* everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:53:00 AM 417 Views
Doesn't the same go for your replies to her and Macharius as well? snoopcester - 24/06/2011 11:46:43 AM 958 Views
it's a never ending cycle of irrelevancy O.O LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:53:54 AM 851 Views
Re: Doesn't the same go for your replies to her and Macharius as well? TaskmasterJack - 25/06/2011 01:51:04 AM 879 Views
because i like to remind people that e-books are bollocks? *NM* Yunalesca - 24/06/2011 04:11:07 PM 454 Views
what are your experiences that make you think so? *NM* LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 02:27:23 AM 459 Views
My goodness... Amyrlin - 29/06/2011 07:29:19 PM 1000 Views
Y'know, normally I would agree... Wulf`gar - 29/06/2011 10:16:39 PM 1457 Views
^ This ^ *NM* LadyLorraine - 30/06/2011 02:04:27 AM 445 Views

Exactly. *NM* everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:36:18 AM 514 Views
I used to be like that... Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:33:04 PM 1039 Views
Have you used an ereader for an extended period of time? *NM* Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 03:01:47 AM 442 Views
no, and i don't want too either Yunalesca - 25/06/2011 11:56:12 AM 885 Views
so basically.. LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 03:25:53 PM 890 Views
...I hope you have a child who refuses to try new foods. *NM* Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 06:38:24 PM 429 Views
im never gonna have kids, your point is moot *NM* Yunalesca - 26/06/2011 12:39:49 AM 482 Views
That wasn't my... you know what? Forget it. Go have fun with the Amish. *NM* Ghavrel - 26/06/2011 09:14:32 PM 412 Views

man I wish I had the money to upgrade! LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:08:21 AM 836 Views
It is. They literally fixed EVERYTHING I had issues with in the 1st one. Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:13:52 PM 857 Views
I chose Nook. everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:41:11 AM 1167 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 461 Views
Probably a good call- Borders has been circling the drain for a while *NM* beetnemesis - 29/06/2011 01:09:37 PM 448 Views
