Sooo my GF wants an e-reader i think... im trying to decide wether to get the NookColor, which looked nice or the Amazon Kindle. Here is where i stand
NookColor looks nicer. I like the touchscreen and the color (its great since i can get her cosmopolitan subscriptions which she likes). Great for that. Seems a bit more responsive when flipping through pages then the kindle.
Price is way more. $249 compared to $189 for the amazon 3g+wifi model.
She can look at things local, for 1 hour, 1 book, 1 day... that part sucks but its okay, its sitll a nice feature since we go to BN a lot.
Screen size is bigger, by 1" but still bigger.
Its color... hows that gonna effect the battery life? Im afraid it'll act like an iPad and drain the battery after a lot of use.
But the nook looks very nice so far. Im not gonna get her an iPad thats a lot, but figured an e-reader... i was really drawn to the magazines... anybody know if the nook allows pdfs to be loaded?
Any thoughts here? Im not interested in rooting it/etc... as its not for me its for her. Im more interested i how she will like it.
