Should I want another e-ink device, I think that I will get a T1 if and when the price drops.
My BF will be getting my K3/3G as planned. That way, if I miss it, it won't be too far and I could... un-gift it?  |
Enjoy your new Nook! I find tablets great for recipes, I use my iPad in the kitchen all the time.

I agree. I love my T1, and while I wouldn't say no to a gifted Kindle, I have never considered getting one to use as my main reader (I have previously thought about getting the cheapest Kindle as a back up reader, but ultimately decided against it). I haven't used the new touch screen model, which may have a better UI, but I really didn't find the previous models very intuitive to use, whereas I've found all of the Sony models to have a great UI. The T1 is great for directly downloading library books as well, and PDFs are surprisingly readable on them thanks to reflow, a usable TOC, etc. I also make extensive use of Sonys foreign dictionaries, which to me are worth the price of the ebook reader by themselves. I love the new font options and the ergonomics of the T1, as well as the colour options for the bezel. Of all of the ebook readers on the market, I think that the T1 is by far the most attractive from a design standpoint. I like having the option of using an SD card, although I can't say that I use it terribly extensively.
To each his own.
