Being able to test-drive is a good idea. Everyone I know who has a e-reader is so satisfied that I have to feel a little curious about it. <br />There aren't enough free books at our library yet to make the switch worthwhile.Stephanie Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206167025245206754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-24348764457623553502011-02-27T10:36:13.781-05:002011-02-27T10:36:13.781-05:00Stick with the MacBook.

I like the idea of nor having to drag two months worth of books around in my luggage. I think the iPad is overpriced and the Kindle is somewhere around 140 bucks? Sweet deal...ciaoRosittahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05722304052321553692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-68973461603693326582011-02-26T23:06:07.011-05:002011-02-26T23:06:07.011-05:00Public libraries have books to download for free s...Public libraries have books to download for free so having your Kindle doesn't need to break your budget.

Yeesh, I feel conflicted.<br /><br />I don't even own and mp3 player of any kind, but I do have a kindle. Love it... it is better than a backlit screen as it does not cause the kind of eye strain you get when on the computer too long. It is like reading a papebook when it comes to your eyes.<br /><br /><br />I also bought a case with built in light, it was pricy, but it doesn't need batteries.. just runs off the kindle. And if you are thinking about getting an e-reader, the kindle is the lightest in weight and the battery lasts much longer than the others on the market.<br /><br />I know I sound like an advertisement, but I spent many months researching the e-readers before buying mine in November.<br /><br />I love mine :)Devonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05563150483422859462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-51715752476076434842011-02-26T20:27:07.071-05:002011-02-26T20:27:07.071-05:00Oh the quandary is right.

I will be out of luck if they close all the bookstores, then the libraries.

The absence of page numbers befuddles me. Yesterday, I bought and read JD Robbs new book and today I bought Unbroken. At this rate, I'll be broken, all right.

I am not as distracted by two pages to look at. However, with that being said, today I bought a real book. Go figure.<br /><br />I am reading so much more now that I have a kindle.I don't loose my book mark and it easily fits into my purse. SOmetimes books do not fit the purse. Also with real books I sometimes skip to the ending before I am finished.Finding Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07671978828279304904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-21907215360407469542011-02-26T17:00:53.086-05:002011-02-26T17:00:53.086-05:00I feel your pain on this Rudee - I would love a Ki...I feel your pain on this Rudee - I would love a Kindle too - it would cut down on the boxes of books I keep collecting. :)<br /><br />I do like the feel of flipping pages tho'....oh the quandry.SkippyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479661523059481730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-71683476410559237292011-02-26T15:38:49.281-05:002011-02-26T15:38:49.281-05:00I do love my kindle - especially the increase font...I do love my kindle - especially the increase font size feature, which I've mentioned before :) But I also like to read real books & will probably not stop buying my favorite authors in that form. We just don't have room in our house for many more books! <br /><br />I also love to listen to audio books - mostly in the car because I don't like wear headphones for very long. I just hook my dealio up to the tape deck & I'm good to go. Except Dr. M's car doesn't HAVE a tape player - it just has a CD player.

I will look forward to seeing it when it is finished<br /> I so agree with you about the dvr. Love it.. and we had ours long after others had already discovered it.<br />My husband has an iPad for work and it is basically a large version of the iPhone. The newer version coming out sometime later this year is suppose to be better and somewhat smaller. I read books via iPhone and at first thought it was perfect for me. Now I am wanting a larger screen and I am looking into the tablets. They seem like just the right size for me..because I like to read in bed. Our Borders stores have filed for bankruptcy and are closing. I heard it was because they didn't get hooked into the e-readers soon enough. I for one will be very sad if book stores start closing down. Even though I have switched to electronic reading...I Love book stores and libraries. One of those situations where you can't have your cake and eat it too.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04373560689980768576noreply@blogger.com
