Looks like I'm going to go with a netbook for now. The iPod touch really has a lot of great features and I ended up wanting BOTH a netbook and the touch--for completely different reasons. But with only one, I wanted the full keyboard and the bigger screen. I bought one with Windows so I'll be able to use Kindle for PC, Nook for PC and Sony for PC.

The keyboard will let me do full web searches and emails.

The price was pretty much the same for the netbook and a used or refurbed iPod touch.

Really it just made me wish I had the budget for both, but as it turned out, one of them was going to push the budget over the 100 dollar mark. I got the netbook for 120 shipped. I *might* have been able to find a Touch on Craigslist or ebay for 80 to 100 but would have been taking my changes. There were some buy it nows at 130.

Thanks everyone for the input!
