Default Nook VS. Kindle?

So does anyone have experience with a Kindle or Nook? which do you think is better? How were they? Often price of books? How soon can you get new books? Can you buy pretty much any book on a kindle/nook?

I'm more so leaning towards a Nook.

I do love reading books by paper also, finding them cheap at places and the history of it i love. However, things like on the go or in the car I might want one for newer books as well. So i can do both.


Also, Jared seriously, that's it? I want in depth shit man! xD
Did yours have a keyboard or not, would it be useful or not?
Nooks are supposed to have longer battery life.

My dad really likes the Coby Kyros. I think it's just because it was cheap, and the hospital was selling it.

Well the kindle offers more bang for the buck. I really like the screen for the kindle, I have a touchpad, but it's not great for reading books, I think the screen can strain your eyes. The kindle screen is great if you're a book worm, plus it's cheaper.

Don't pay attention to the free books because they're not that great,and most come in pdf format, which doesn't support many of the kindle features (same goes for the nook). The .99 books are great and pretty much free. From what I can see, amazon's online books are cheaper than BN.

I have a different tablet than what you're looking for, you should check the kindle and BN on their website for more in-depth features. I think you can get a better understanding on what each tablet does.

If it were up to me, I would go for a kindle (they have different types) because they have a bigger library and offer more than BN. You should probably wait and check out the new kindle fire too.
