Kindle vs. Nook (updated 1/2/2011)
If you’re attempting to choose among a Nook and a Kindle, perhaps I may help. My wife and I have owned a Nook (the initial one, not the new Nook Color), a Kindle 2, and a Kindle DX. When Amazon declared the Kindle 3 this summer, we pre-ordered two Kindle 3′s: the wi-fi only model in graphite, and the wi-fi + 3G model in white. They arrived in late August and we have used them very steadily since then. For us, Kindle is better than Nook, but Nook is a good device with it is own vantages that I will talk about below. I’ll end this review with a few words with regards to the Nook Color.
