Jon, I can only respond to what you write, not to what you imagine you mean. You said the kindle isn't a good fit for library books. If you don't qualify that statement, it's wrong, because it can be a great fit.
I'm not arguing that if library books and other ADE ePubs are one's primary need, then for several reason Kindle may not be a good fit. It very well may not be.
But it is for many of us.
Strictly speaking, not that I would have quibbled if you didn't bring it up, you can't do library books on Nook "as is" either, if that was indeed all we are talking about, as you need to download the ADE software separately. But it is officially supported, which I think is more to the point.

Try your own advice on not giving false information. Like this:
"And to be honest, as of right now, an iPad is the best overall device for reading eBooks."

To be honest, bull.
iPad, is a heavy, overpriced, battery-sucking, glaring, back-lit beast.
If the multiple apps overcome all that for YOU, swell, but how about acknowledging all those reason why another device...ANY other device... MAY be MUCH better for reading ebooks.


And another thing....I think the green Football II (pictured, that _I_ had) looks nicer than the original white one. So there!
