			My 1st 'real' ereader was the Nook 1st edition which I got before the xmas; sortof used a palm tunsten II for reference for classes.  Have done tablets ever since including a Fire HDX 8.9, still using it on occasion. 
For some dumb reason got an kobo aura le which is mistake; bought an oasis 2 a couple of months back because to the hardware buttons; hw buttons are nice for us who dip into potato chips, popcorn, cookies, etc while reading. 
 
For me, reading is reading but a huge factor is how a tablet/ereader manages the books; kobo is very lacking.  The ipad sucks for reading as no decent reading app & inability to have the background/foreground behave decently, e.g. searing one's eyesight. 
 
Haven't done B&N ever since they stopped me downloading my books; do not want to go thru any gyrations to get what I bought. 
 
Calibre is a lifesaver in not being locked into any company; tried to donate again but I don't do paypal.
