Nook vs. Kindle? Your thoughts?
I was hoping to get an iPad but I've got a MacBook air and iPhone so it is hard to justify the expense. But I'd like a reader that has the interwebs too. There is a good deal on Buy.com today for a refurb color Nook, but I'm not sure which is better - Kindle or Nook. What's your experience?
Thanks!
Re: Nook vs. Kindle? Your thoughts?
I went Kindle, because I love reading outside during the summer, and the Kindle has the eInk that is just like a real book's pages.
Kindle just announce three new models though - a small one, a touch version, and the Fire, which looks sort of like a very inexpensive iPad, so might be worth exploring the different models. (The Fire doesn't have eInk though, if thats a factor for you)
much like the iphone/droid debate, this really comes down to some people like the kindle, some like the nook.
the new kindle looks pretty damn cool. i have the kindle 2 and really like it. i didn't want a backlit screen and like that it looks like the page of a book, easier on my already crappy eyes. i haven't used a nook so i can't really talk comparison.
HTH
i discovered this weekend that target carries both the nook & kindle in their electronics section. That way you can test out them both, side by side.
they don't have the new kindles though...those aren't going to be released until nov.
I have a Kindle and DH has a Nook. I loved reading the Kindle outside on the beach with no glare, but at night I wish it could have a back-light option.
DH really likes his Nook because he can surf the web on it a lot easier than the Kindle (I have the basic one) and he likes the back-light, esp. at night. I love that when he wakes up in the middle of the night he can read without waking me up
