I can't decide whether to get the Kindle w/WiFi and 3g or the Nook color.
Of course, I want this primarily as a reader, but was hoping to use it to send/receive emails and browse the web while traveling. I travel within the US and also in Europe and don't usually take a cell or laptop. Frankly, I was just about to purchase the NC, because, until today, I understood that using Kindles to read/send emails and browsing the web was possible but barely...A real hassle. Then, someone told me it was very easy. Also,another factor that I had not considered until today was the fact that Kindles have an antenna, making certain that access to WiFi was always possible.
Thoughts? Liz
