I bought a Nook Classic as my first reader & loved it. I didn't mind the lower touch screen. Yes the Nook is a bit heavy.

I bought the Kindle3 second because at the time I could buy more books & cheaper prices than I could on my Nook. It was lighter & I enjoyed reading with it, but do not like the outer keyboard or the buttons to turn pages...Just my preference. It still is a very good e-reader.

I was in Best Buy one day waiting for my husband to get something & I strolled over to the e-readers. I saw the Sony PRS-950 & really liked it...Did not like the price. So I played around with the Sony PRS-350 & fell in love with it. Still I was put off with the downloading books from the computer. So I walked away, but I couldn't get it out of my mind. I really liked the size & the touch screen & the keyboard & the dictionary ...and so on. So I went back next weekend & it was on sale. I grabbed one & ran...Oh Okay I payed for it first.

So I've had it a little over a month & I have to say I really like it. I still read on the other readers because I still have books on them I haven't read. But I will be giving the Nook to my sister since she likes the touch screen on it in preference to the Buttons on the Kindle. Actually I should sell the Nook & wait for the Sony-350 to go on sale again & get her one of them.

I think I've turned into a real reader gadget person...To think two years ago there was no way I would ever get one of those e-readers.
