Hi,

So I'm stuck between these two options and want to know what people feel about using them. Specifically I like to read at the gym, in sauna and steam room, and having a backlit screen and the ability to read epub files is a must.

I used to do so with the good old basic Nook. It worked great, even in the steam room when I let it heat up first in the sauna to prevent condensation. Unfortunately it was stolen. My Nook Glowlight (the 2nd version, white, but not sony) is okay but can actually overheat and stop turning pages etc.

My remaining questions then are below

How does it feel to hold and read one handed for extended periods?

How does it behave in high temperatures?

What issues or small problems have you had with either of these devices?
