I will take a look at that aluratek libre.

If I could order to Canada from newegg.com theres a pretty good chance I would get that jetbook lite right now since our dollars are almost par. But its 139.99 at newegg.ca which is still a solid price but going to research it a bit more before I pick (likely between the kobo, and the 2 you mentioned since they are in my price range)

thanks all for the replies!
If you are already a member of Costco (which is to say, if you have already paid your annual dues), then the Libre is a good bet.

I like the JBL, but I have spent $55 since getting it on rechargeable batteries and charger, an SD card and reader, etc. So keep in mind that your spending hasn't ended when you have the JBL in your hands.

There are plenty of threads about the Libre and the JBL to research here at the Ectaco jetBook forum.

The word here the past couple of weeks is that the Kobo looks like old technology. I recommend that you not be the first person on the internet to get one.

Calgary, eh? The Stamps look pretty good, except that they traded Jermaine Copeland. I think they might miss him.
