$139 is a nice price. I figure if Amazon doesn't have what I want nobody does. I found out other formats - epub etc - would convert easily. Didn't really geek out on researching it, just went for something I thought would do what I needed at a price that wasn't much risk. My sister has a Kindle2 she paid $350 for when they first came out and I like this one better

>We were (or is it are) thinking on buying one of the e-book devices from some time now, and I was thinking that this Christmas would be a good time to get one but I am not sure which one as I do not know how they compare so I do not know which one to get (I still did not pay attention to the details, so I do not know the features of them), the
Sony eReader the
Kobo or the
Kindle 3, have you tried other readers before deciding for the kindle? what was the main reason to chose it over the others, if is not too much to ask. Thanks!

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
