Kindle 2 Device
Kindle 2 Device User Review…

Kindle or Nook?
Now that Nook is on the market many will be wondering which ereader is the best choice. My wife ordered me a Nook for Christmas, which was to arrive in early January. I did much research, including spending time at the local Barnes and Noble testing out the Nook. Before my Nook shipped I decided to order a Kindle. With Amazon’s return policy I knew I could return it in 30 days for a full refund, while B&N would charge a 10% restocking fee if I returned an open Nook.
I decided to keep the Kindle 2 Device and cancel my Nook order. A big part of my reason to keep the Kindle 2 Device is because Amazon’s website, especially the Kindle store, is far better than B&N’s website. While both stores will offer bestselling titles as ebooks for similar prices, I’ve found Amazon has a far better selection of more specialized books. An ereader is only as good the content available, and Amazon has B&N beat in ebook selection. While B&N boasts a million titles, over half are out-of-copyright public domain books which Amazon has but does not count as part of the 390,000 titles available on Kindle 2 Device. Since Amazon has always been an electronic retailer I have more confidence in Amazon’s technical ability to support the Kindle 2 Device than in B&N’s ability to support the Nook.
As a device the Kindle 2 Device is easy to use, and even though I have poor AT&T coverage (the wireless service provider for Kindle 2 Device) I have been able to download books in less than a minute. Jeff Bezos has said he intends for the Kindle to become invisible when reading so we are not mindful of the device, only the story and ideas we are reading, and Kindle 2 Device does this well. The page turns are fast and no more disruptive than the turn of a physical page. It is easy to search the Kindle 2 Device store from the device and it is easy to access the content once downloaded.
While Nook does have some good features – it is an attractive device, the ability to turn photos into screen savers is nice and the wifi option is a good one – the Kindle 2 Device’s software works like a dream, the device is easy to use, Amazon’s selection is better and Amazon has the technology to offer excellent support for an ereader that allows readers to disappear into the book they are reading. Nook has potential, but has a long way to go to catch up with Amazon and the Kindle 2 Device.
