Which E-reader are you using?
« on: October 13, 2011, 11:48 PM »
Hi, I wanted to know what is the most bought e-reader and the best place to do so is... here :D

If you have comments or like to expand more about your selection or the reasons - you're welcome! Your experience might help other users when they consider buying an e-reader. By the way, if you have two or more different e-readers you're certainly encouraged to vote for each of them! 8)  (Yes, the vote limit was modified. Much thanks to Mr. Admin!)

Any comments about the poll are also welcome.

All the best and thanks! :)

I was given a Nook (3G) by my husband about a year and a half ago. I absolutely love it. Only complaint is having to use a light for night reading. This is the device I use for all my epubs.

Then my husband got me a Nookcolor, which I also love. I use this device for books purchased directly from Barnes and Noble. My complaint about this device is reading outside in bright light.

For the first time ever I now read two books at one time. One on each device. The great thing about this is I always have a device charged and ready to go.

I've been toying with the idea of buying the new Nook Simple Touch. And yes... I admit to having a serious problem. :)

You can vote for both devices - the numbers are supposed to win :D

You have also a cool husband that pampers you :) The problem with the Nook Simple touch is...too many nooks? It's really a serious problem ;)

I use my Sony reader touch edition, which is great with the e-ink technology as it's better on the eyes, and I also use adobe reader on my netbook computer :)

Oh, A small note: whoever could not vote for more than one device he/she is using can now vote for each of the devices he/she is using - For example Kindle PC in conjunction with Kindle, Nook Color and Nook Touch, etc etc :)

Thanks to Mr. Admin for the correction of the poll vote limit! :)

Yep I read books on the computer but I'm still thinking about purchasing a physical E-reader but I still undecided though If I will be on that point of purchasing one I might get a Kindle though  :)

May I inquire why you prefer Kindle and not Nook? Not that I say that nook is better but it's interesting to learn your reasons for choosing Kindle :)

Well before I joined STP I've heard a few things about Kindle and that time I only knew about IPAD.  So my choices were IPAD or KINDLE and I thought I'd rather have Kindle than IPAD. So my choice is not because Kindle is way better but that I've only heard of nook in here and I even have no idea if it will work in my country.   :)

I have a sony touch which was used the most until some time back. Recently bought the iPad and am still enamored, so the Sony is feeling a little left out of late. For my laptop, I use firefox to read epubs and have the kindle for PC too. And for audio books it's my iPod :)

Happy Reading !!!

Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you – not because they are nice… but because you are nice
