Thread: Which Is Your Favorite E-Reader ?

Excellent thread!

I'm a huge reader, go through about three books on average a week.

The Kobo has been my favorite so far, can use my library card and download lots of e-books, they will stay on my reader for approx. 8 weeks and then expire.

The prices of some of the books are quite expensive, Cornelius Ryan two e-books, "The Longest Day" and, "A Bridge to Far" were almost $30.00 cdn each but classic reads.

I love the ability to read something on the net, or read an article of see a show, and be able to go online either with my laptop, tablet, phone or e-reader itself and search for that particular book and download it and start reading right away.

It also allows me not to forget about a book, since it's so convenient.

So many old classics I've read again, Gone with the Wind, Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, A Clockwork Orange, Dickens, Victor Hugo, Somerset Maugham, Mark Twain, it's something that is so convenient, just close it and it remembers your page, switch between books...so many aspects I like about them.

But if I had to reduce it to what I love about e-readers the most, it's that they're just so enjoyable to take with you to the bathroom, for some reading and peace and quiet.

edited to add: I should add that as far as I know, it's only the Kobo (cool name, Ko Bo -"Book") that allows you to download the Gutenberg free domain e-books from the library, at least that's the case in Ontario. Using your library card to get books on your e-reader is very cool by the way.
