Hello from Wisconsin.
Well I've been lurking around here long enough to know that the MobileRead
Forum is full of exceptionly kind people; most with a good sense of humor. So I thought it was time to join in the fun.

I've had my Nook WiFi since August, and mostly love it! The 1.5 update was an unexpected improvement.

The husband and I are gifting a Kindle3 3G and WiFi to my parents for Christmas. (Not because I don't like my Nook, it just fits better with their needs). It's sitting right over there on the table, and I so want to check it out. I should at least register it for them and put on a few books, right?

Welcome to MobileRead, Deb.

Of course you should!! Won't it be nice for them to open it and already have books they like on it? Instant gratification, and you could go thru the process with them...

Just be prepared to help them de-register and re-register in their own account.......

Lurking, what a good idea. Most people spend their time looking. I end up spending so much of mine, lurking, I never think to do it when it is most practical. My dad loves his Kindle, OK on the eyes, so sounds like a great prez. Any gift related to reading is a good karma getter and it helps keep old people off the road making my driving a lot easier. (that's a joke-I have trouble with taste.)

Welcome to MR! I think it's a great idea to load some books on the new K3 you're giving your parents for Christmas. What a great daughter :-)

Thanks for the welcome!

I did did the kindle registered, and put on a few books and games. It was very easy to set up, and so light. I'm happy with my choice for them, it seems pretty intuitive. They should enjoy it.
