The pandigital novel got blasted last month after its first release at Kohl's. A recall was made and firmware was updated. I didn't get the first one so I don't have a comparision for that but I did pick up the new release of it at BB&B today.
My opion so far? Not bad. I am not looking for something to compete with my quad core pc but instead something that has easy access to ebooks and i can read at night without an extra light source.
I already have a Barnes & Noble account and read books via my iPad so when O got the Novel, i connected straight to B&N and was able to download the same books that were already on my iPad. Everything worked perfectly for me.
I even surfed the web some and had fun with it.
So, in comparision to my iPad, the iPad is faster, has more options, etc AND costs $829
The Novel is easy for buying, downloading and reading books AND costs only $149
Not sure on the battery life yet but since i plan on keeping it next to my bed, I can charge whenever needed, evan while reading.
