both here and to ebooks as well, although I've been using references on my laptop for years.. My wife and I got a pair of Nooks a couple of months ago in an effort to reduce our book "footprint", as we've moved several times in the past 6-7 years, and books take a lot of space. We'll probably never reduce it completely...she has several authors that she collects in hardcover, and it doesn't (as yet) seem practical for my math and computer books, mainly due to graphics and equations, etc.

The Nook didn't have everything I wanted in a reader, but it had a lot of it. I also considered the Kindle, esp.the Kindle 3, but did not want to get "married" to Amazon. It was the epub format that sold me on the Nook.
