Does anyone have an Ebook Reader, i.e. Kindle, Nook, Sony Reader and what do you think of them? I want to get the Kindle DX or Kindle Fire.

I don't have one I just use the kindle app on my Droid phone. I do enjoy the kindle app though if that helps :) I have considered getting a kindle so I look forward to other comments so I can decide as well :)

My mom has a kindle and she really loves it. For me personally I like reading from a paper book. I tried to read something on her kindle and I just couldn't stand it.

I have a 3rd generation Kindle, which doesn't have all the crazy Internet features but it has the easy-to-read screen.
If you're main purpose for getting it is reading, I would suggest getting one with the stone tablet screen as it is MUCH easier on the eyes. Plus, with a Kindle Fire, you can only use the Internet in places where ou already have access to a wIfi connection.

I have Blio on my computer. Does that Count? :peace:

To be honest I would just get a tablet instead of an Ebook reader. Most of the tablets out there have apps for Ebooks, and better functionality.

I have a Kindle Wii-Fi and it is sweet.

I don't have an E-Book Reader, and I particulary don't want one. I love the smell and feel of a physical book. However, in the future, books are probably only going to be in E-Reader format, so I probably will be forced to get one at some point.
-
A lot of good input. I have so many books in my library, that I want a way to get the clutter under control. Wish those apps and a tablet or an E Reader was available ten years ago.

Nope was guna buy the kindle fire (wanted more of a tablet than an e-book) but found this app i believe it's called media overdrive that lets me read e-books that I borrow from the local library on my phone

I bought my wife the Kindle, just the plain one that was running $79. I can't get here to look at emails on the computer but, she won't put the kindle down. I bought it for her for Christmas and she has gone through about 40 books so far. I can't keep it out of her hands, she love's it. She used to read alot but, she enjoys and seems to read even more with the Kindle.

Husband really likes his Kindle. Saves a lot of space; we literally have bookshelves in every room. The books cost less to download than purchase paper or hardback. Many are free. Plus it has internet connection. Definite advantages and even though you can take notes, I still like a hard copy, especially if studying, so I can highlight or make notes.
