eReaders, Kindles, & Nooks oh my!!

So we did it!  We got an eBook.  I am in love!  After much research between the three we went with the eReader.  There were many reasons why though.

1. Kindles & Nooks have proprietary downloads. Meaning you can only get their ebooks from Amazon or Barns & Noble.  With the eReader you have Sony's store, Google Books, and MANY other sites too.

2. Cost!  It was $199.99 for a touch screen one.  Granted this doesn't have WiFi, but thats okay with us.  Our theory was we would know in advance if we were taking a trip or not and just pre-download books.  Also we have a mini laptop with internet so if all else, we could log on there and download.  It saved us a TON of money since the one with WiFi is $349.99!

3. Size.  It is small yet not too small and it has the capability to enlarge your text so you can see it if necessary.  It isn't too heavy either.

4. Some other perks were expandable memory slots, long battery life, and ease of downloading.  It is pretty much self explanatory.

One of the best perks is that you can download books from your library!!!  For Free!!!

Go get yourself an eBook, you won't regret it.  Happy Reading!!
