Comparison shopping for eReaders

If you're on the fence about an e-reader purchase, here's a great device comparison chart. I was surprised to see this on the website of new kid on the block, Kobo, because (not surprisingly) Kindle pretty much comes out on top when you lay it out like this.

I have a Kindle and a Nook, and I love them both. (My Kindle has a cool Van Gogh skin and my Nook sports a trendy Jonathan Adler shuck.)

Barnes & Noble Nook is now available at Best Buy

The Barnes & Noble Nook is now available through Best Buy, revving up to give Kindle and iPad a run for the money. I'm using my Kindle, but planning to give a Nook as a gift. Sat next to an iPad on the airplane last week, and the dude attached to it had his elbow in my ribcage all the way from New York to Houston. No PC envy on my part. Size matters, and for my taste, the iPad is a little unwieldy for the purpose of book reading. Here's what CrunchGear has to say about it.
