Hello everyone, I have been lurking around for about 3 months reading everyone’s chatter about the different e-readers (pro/con). I joined a couple of days ago because I had a couple of questions. They have since been answered; however I am now more than EVER confused about which e-reader to get. My sweet, darling husband wants to get me the new ColorNook but I waiver daily. While I am not opposed to any other reader (except Kindle [library e Pub books a MUST] no Amazon problems otherwise), I still seem to be on a ledge. While the color nook is nifty and new, and I love the magazine thing, most people talk about the concern with LCD screen vs. e-ink eyestrain (not a big issue to me). On the other hand, I am a ‘love-to-sit-outside’ reader and have read some very concerning things about being able to read the LCD in the sun. Should I really be concerned about this? (Sorry this is so lengthy, but I wanted to be clear). I want to thank everyone in advance!
