Get a psp phat or slim that's running homebrew. There's an ebook reader program + you have a place to play emulators and browse the internet with wifi.

Eink screen is 1000X different from ANY LCD screen

THATS why you get an eReader, not just some app for your phone

Kindle isn't popular on Amazon for no reason, so a wonderful choice.

kindle was released first, thats why its so popular, and becausse amazon has the money to back it up with ebook deals that are actually loosing them money, but that wont last forever


no thanks, i will stick to B&N, a book seller that has been great to me for as long as i can remember, and if you ask me, the touch screen on the nook>the keyboard on the kindle (plus it can display color webpages, if only a tidbit of them)

Didn't the Kindle recently come out/dropped price of an e-reader for $139USD?

Also, an article I read on Gizmodo said that by Christmas, e-readers could go down to as low as $99.99
