What if all I want is an eReader?
Besides, the Nook Color was not around when I bought my Kindle in December of 2009.

I'm not saying it is not a good thing, Steve. I'm perfectly happy with the Kindle.

I'm with you, I love my Kindle and don't want it to do anything but give me great books to read. I appreciate the links you posted, I just got mine this past Christmas and have not had much time to play with it.

Just a suggestion to read, if you haven't already..."The Cigar MAker" I'm reading it now, it's a great book.

Also, I find the e-ink much easier to read outdoors during the day than a backlit computer screen.

My and worth as much.

The other great thing is that we don't need to worry about glare as much with e-ink I bought a KoBo for $70 and it's exactly what I needed for reading books and nothing else. I've got an android phone that I upgrade every 2 years that can do everything else. I would love the back lighting option but I can live with having a $10 book light and $70 eReader.
