In Reply to: OT- Kindle vs Nook? posted by JMS/.MN on March 24, 2013 at 11:25:25:
I bought a kindle keyboard and then was given a kindle fire for christmas a couple years ago. I don't have any experience with a nook but I really like my kindles. If you want it just as a reader I like the keyboard version better. It's easier to read even outside and the battery lasts longer. I end up using the fire mostly though and it does alot more of course. I can't read it outside because the sun seems to glare off it but it does have a backlit screen so you can read at night. I live around 20 some miles to the closest bookstore and with the kindle all I have to do is buy it and it's downloaded in less than a minute and I can start reading. It will make the print larger which seems to very handy the older I get. If I don't know a word it has a built in dictionary that you can just put your finger on the word and a definition pops up. It will keep your place if you quit reading or you can bookmark a certain page you like. I have a John Deere tractor book on mine that I keep the serial numbers bookmarked on that is handy. If your not sure you will like a book you can download a free sample of a chapter or so. Amazon will keep track of the books you buy and will give you suggestions you might like based on your books. You don't have books laying around that you've already read taking up room. The books used to be cheaper than paperbacks but enough people are using them now that they are pretty close to the same price now. Last I heard Barnes and Noble wasn't doing that well so I would stay away from the Nook but thats just me. Just a warning though you can't buy books from Barnes and Noble and put them on a Kindle or vice versa. You are pretty much tied to their books. That being said the Kindle does have a couple more places you can buy books from that are sorta tied in with Amazon. Overall I really like mine and read out of it everyday. I haven't bought a regular book in quite awhile. I would go to Amazon and look in their Kindle store and see what books they have you might like. They don't have every book ever written by no means but they do have alot.
