I have never bought my mom anything and I would like to get my mom something nice now that I have a steady job. While I don’t make that much money, I hear that Kindle is the best option and has the most books on it, aside from other options.
I am not interested in the Ipad. That is WAY too expensive.
My second problem is that after reading a bit on the Kindle is that the DX version has more books on it, which is terrible because I would like to get my mom the best Kindle I can buy her.
I’ve never done anything nice like this. I’ve always had a terrible low paying (state minimum amount) part time job. I have my first full time job and I want to thank my mom for always helping me out when I needed her.
My mom actually said she wishes she can get a Nook or a Kindle. That’s the reason I’m getting it. Personally I think it’s just a slim version of a laptop.
I own the Kindle. If you ask me to choose again now, I’ll still go for the Kindle instead of the Nook, because I think the web browsing function over wireless network (while the Nook only has web browsing over WiFi, i.e. only when you are around WiFi hotspot) is rather important. The free internet (and now it is free international internet) plus the web browser allow me to look for information whenever I’m in need. It is really a cool feature that cannot be missed. And right now it is free for both the U.S. and many other countries, it is just incredible when you bring it to trip.
And Amazon has just announced a limewire upgrade to its Kindle, to secure their head position in ebook reader market. See here for details:
And indeed, the Kindle has more available books, and ebooks are cheaper on the Kindle as well (Barnes and Nobles always count in the one million free books from Google, which can also be read on the Kindle. For Sony, many users complain it is difficult to find books for it).
And I remember I read these reviews when I decided to get my Kindle:

Learning and understanding of the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic language. The hieroglyphic script was the longest lived and earliest form of the Egyptian language.

Hieroglyphic Egyptian employs pictures of objects, each with…
Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge…
