Choosing best e-reader for French Canadian
I am looking to buy an e-reader and feel at lost. The new Kindle DX seems great but not cheap ($489.00). At that price, maybe the Ipad would be better. I have seen the Ipad at the store and the screen reflected all the lights. I read a lot outside on holidays and summertime. My other major concern is to find books in French. Are there many e-store or libraries with French books? Are there more books and are they cheaper with Kindle or Apple?
Please help. Merci |

Hi Goyetted and welcome to MobileRead. Problem with the iPad is battery life and the fact you have a light shining in your eye. Maybe check out the Sony

Good to have your company, Goyetted. Might be an idea for you to check out the 'which one should I buy?' forum here and also to seek some advice in the French language forums at MobileRead. Good luck and best wishes. Neil
