My wife uses her iPad 1 to read from. I use my 650 to read from.

iPad 2.

I really only use my iPhone, but I also use two android phones as well, for reading. Less now, since I found readMe this morning, havent touched them, nor have I used Stanza on the old phone.

I finally got an iPad, and I find myself picking it up to read on more than either of my Nooks, though I still use both of them. When I go out, I take my iPod Touch along and read on that.

Kindle is my favourite for most things, but the iPad is great for art books or illustrated magazines etc; and the iPod touch is great for waiting rooms and snatched moments away from home.

Just my iPad. Of course the only other Apple product I even own anymore is a Shuffle. Would be kinda hard to read on that.

I mainly use my new Sony T1, but I don't always carry it around, and I do always have my phone, so if I find myself with a few minutes unexpected wait somewhere, or if I want to read somewhere where the light isn't too good, I'll use the phone.

Those of you who selected "Across devices" (sync)... What app are you using? Kindle or iBook on iPod/iPad? (Is anyone syncing to OSX??)

For the few books I have on Kindle format, the Kindle app gets used. For majority of what I read, I just do manual syncing. Pretty much the only time I switch devices if when I need to charge so I just check how far along I am in the book and jump to that section using another reader.

iPad2 occasionally. Mostly for my magazines and non-fic books. I use either Kindle or iBooks app. Most of my books are on Kindle though. For fic books, I read those on my Kindle Keyboard, soon to be the Kindle Touch when it's released. I also ordered the Kindle Fire, so we'll see how that is for reading. Anyway, this is about Apple.
