No compromises:
I can check out books from the library.
I can order books from B&N,Amazon and apple.
I can read PDFs.
I have full color and a back lit display.
I can read it in full sunlight.
I can surf the web, watch videos and listen to MP3s
Integrates with my Mac and PC's.
Displays are clean and Fast.
WIFI access.
Both devices will allow me to do lots of other things.
Apple support is 2nd to none.
Disadvantages
Small screen on the iPhone, but would only use it when I did not want to take the iPad.
Price of the iPad, but you get what you pay for.
Shorter battery life than some, but I charge everything while I sleep, and I do not see that as a problem.
Some times I try to save money and put up with the limitations, and I am almost always disappointed. So I figure I will put down my $$ and be happy and not have to worry about the hardware and compromising, so will have more free time to enjoy myself.

Dale, I didn't think you could check books out of libraries with an Apple device - at least not libraries that use Overdrive. Some audio books, yes, but I didn't think ebooks - ?
