I just have to chime in here again and say that I love the Kindle commercials. They are cute and clever. I'm a Nook & Nookcolor owner and I would never buy any of the Barnes and Noble ereaders based on their commercials. They really stink! Of course this is just my opinion.

I just got a Nook Simple Touch this week and I love it so far. It's perfect for my needs. All i wanted was an e-reader. I have a laptop and an android phone so I don't need all of those extras that the Nook color and the Nook tablet offer. I love how the battery doesn't drain unless you are actually turning pages so you don't really have to turn it off (you just have to keep wi-fi turned off). Previously I was using Kobo on my Evo 4g and it was draining my battery so much that I had to put it on the charger at least 3 times a day if I was reading heavily. I love that if you go to Barnes & Noble you can read most of the books there for an hour a day. I haven't tried it yet, but I will. I wouldn't trade my Nook in for any other e-reader.

I use an Ipad, since that was what my dad chose to buy for me. And so far it works for me, and is really helpful to me since I don't have to lug my laptop to school along with my heavy readings.

I'm using Polybook and like it so far.

I use the Aluratek Libre E-Book reader, and I find that I have more space and is easier to read then any read I've worked on yet.
I have worked on the Nook for my Aunt and can't stand it.
Mine reads more formats, music, pics and I just love it's features and for the price just can't be beat.

After buying books and constantly trying to find space of where to store them, I finally break down and got myself a Kindle 3g+wifi October last year. And so far it is the best decision I have ever made.

I am very OC when it comes to books. Call me selfish but I never EVER lend my books to someone. I have bad experiences when it comes to lending, so my bookshelves has locks. Yep you heard it right, it has dead bolts

. I don't want to see any nicks or scratches or folds. In comes Kindle. It's very light weight and convenient to carry around. Very good investment too plus it saves space, lots of it.

My hubby bought me my Kindle last year for my birthday. I am a constant reader.. i had a whole room of books ready to go to the exchange book shop.. but i just kept adding more than i took back LOL. Hubby decided a Kindle would give him back the spare room..

I have to say that in 38 years of marriage, its the absolute BEST birthday present he ever gave me. I now have over 1500 books stored in my library, and thanks to STP i add more and more.. I LOVE this site!!

I got an iPad2 with 64GB + Wi-fi for reading ebooks whenever, wherever. I love reading but I choose not to bring books with me all the time because I hate it when a book gets ruined (i.e cover gets torn, spine cracks). Plus I can easily download the ebooks right into it. Also, the nighttime setting is perfect for when you want to read late at night until at 3AM... which I'm sure most of you do, haha.

I did not want a device tied to a bookstore, and I prefer to use Calibre to manage my library, so I bought a Coby Kyros touch first - it died in 3 months. Next, I bought a Lenovo 7" tablet and I just love it. I am really careful with it and hope it lasts.

Before I used tablets, I had a dedicated ereader made by Southern Telecom called the Slick. It was simple, easy to use, had a backlit screen (which I favor, because I mostly read in dim light conditions). Some of the buttons became unresponsive after 14 months. I'd buy another one if I could find one. Sears has the next model and I may just buy one when it goes on sale again as a backup.
