So I'm wondering if the nook color is really worth the extra $100 (for me anyhow). I really just want an ereader, don't care about mp3's or surfing the web, etc. The main reason I'm considering it is that I've read that it has much better pdf support, and I do have quite a few Rpg and gaming books in pdf format. (Plus alot of novels in PDF I'm not sure I want to spend the time converting) My other question is how bad is it reading of the backlit screen? is it anything like reading off my computer monitor for hours? Sorry if I rambled, I am a little scatterbrained today...1st day of not smoking lol.
