Wooooh! So, after much deliberating between the Sony, Kindle and Nook, the B&N/eBay/refurb thang did me in.

The price was great - under $130 and it arrived in 2 days!
So, I charged it and playing with it and, thus far it's pretty cool. There are a few things that I think B&N should have done in regards to the "shelves" and displays and such but, it's still very nifty.
One of the things I didn't like about the Kindle was the keypad at the bottom so I do like the touch screen. It's a little sensitive I think but, then I just need to get used to that. I'm going to get the jelly cover for it + a screen protector.
I was surprised at how fast the two books I bought on BN came in. Less than a minute.
Now just going to mess around with uploading some fanfiction I have hanging around the computer.
I'm sure I'll add more of a review as I go along.
Jackie.
