E-reader devices in Canada
I'm finally ready to buy my first e-reader! I've been wanting to buy one for ages but just haven't had the time to do the research.
The reason I started the Canada-specific thread is because I'm not sure if there are issues with buying e-books from outside of Canada? E.g., with iTunes, I can only buy from the iTunes Canada store, NOT the US one (which means I often can't use coupons I receive).
Also, my absolute MUST is that my e-reader will work with Canadian libraries! (My local librarian told me Kindles won't work)
So... any fellow Canadians out there who can give me e-reader recommendations? Specs that are important to me:
- Monitor size
- Monitor clarity
- Weight (I want a light one!)
- Battery life
- Ease of ebook purchase/download/sync
- I'd prefer a charger that plugs into the wall rather than my computer, for times I travel without a computer
- and on that note, I guess I need a dual voltage charger? For travel in Europe etc.
-works with Canadian library system (Overdrive based, I believe)
thanks in advance for any help!
