I think the frontlight was a big improvement and was worth waiting. Do you think there will be something for the next generation that could be worth waiting for ?
Also, there have been some discounts on the Mini and the Touch, so I wonder if the Glo will get one soon.
Last question, is it worth buying a 3 year warranty for the Glo ? (the price of the warranty is 30% of the device).
Thanks  |
I bought my first reader for $379 and 6 months later a better one was $199.
No regrets. I read 150 books in that 6 months that I could not have read /without the reader. Small village, no bookstores, very small library.
Ereaders are a lot cheaper now and I have several. There will always be something newer and cheaper, but not always better.
If you see one you like and can afford you should consider buying it. Give it to your mother or sell it if a much better one comes along. That is what I do.
