True I suppose.

But it's not that much different to just try them all separately and see which one a person likes best.

Side by side is ideal, but for me at least just trying different ones works well enough. But I also don't necessarily obsess over having the absolute perfect device--as long as whatever I get is good enough for my specific needs for that gadget I'm happy.

Life's to short to agonize over simple purchases like readers and tablets and making sure you get the perfect one. We're talking $200-800 purchases, it's not like buying a house you plan on living in for decades etc. where getting the right one is a huge decision.
