You can download most new books off of Demonoid for free too. Not that I would ever advocate such a thing.

I like mine. Easier to pack along than the 300 books I've got loaded on it.

Where did everyone buy theirs? Is Kindle a Barnes and Noble Specific buy, or can you get a better deal on it from somewhere else?

I got my wife hers on woot.com one day for $150. That included the built in wifi and was a pretty smoking deal.

Love mine, great for a heavy reader since it saves you from lugging around a ton of books if you go on vacation, you don't build up a big pile of books that you have to do something with, etc.

I know a few people that love them.
Based on their advice, I'll likely get the Nook. They have a color one that will better for magazines and children's books.

Son has a kindle. Loves it. Got it off of Amazon - but I believe you can get them in Best Buy now.

So now the question looms, would you buy a Kindle or a Nook?

Here's a good site comparing them: http://www.thenookvskindle.com/ I think in many ways, this is a Coke/Pepsi, Ginger/Mary Ann kind of debate. |

My phone came with a kindle app. I've read 3 books on it. That's 3 more books than I've read in the last 5 years. I like it.
