The dictionary is not THAT bad. I have used it. I only swear at it once or twice each time I use it.

So, yeah, if you want to be able to take good notes, read library books, quickly look up items and have a really bright reading light, go with a Sony touch screen model.

If you want to be able to take good notes and use a great dictionary, but want to only buy from amazon, or independent publishers, and don't care about amazon remotely removing books, etc., and want to read library books where your library supports the Kindle, then go with Amazon's.

If you just read trashy romance novels (I call them Urban Fantasy and stick my tongue out at my wife who calls them romance novels -- guys don't read romance novels), and you don't care if your librarian knows you actually read Twilight (miserable book I would never allow my daughter to read a book about obsessing over some stupid guy), then get a Nook.
