Borders gone, I'm forced to get an e-reader. **arghh**

Especially when you start browsing all the .99 cent books. I'm on amazon all the time checking out books for my Kindle..."Oh theres one, only .99 cents!" *Click* "Oh there's another one! Hey...it's only .99 cents no big deal!" *click* and on and on until eventually I'm wondering how $20.00 was charged from various amazon purchases ;D

Nook. Don't actually own one, but I know a few people who are e-book pioneers. They recommend it over the others.

Depends on what you're looking for. For connectivity and general flexibility, Kindle's the way to go. I, on the other hand, just wanted to read books and not have a ginormous slab of reader, so I got the Sony Pocket. Individual needs. But the new Nook ("Simple Touch"?) is VERY attractive.

Yep, in my case, it's kind of like giving an alcoholic the keys to the liquor store. I really have to watch myself. Fortunately, there's a ton of free stuff on Project Gutenberg.

Best of luck with the Galaxy, that sounds like a great choice. That's one of the reasons I love Kindle. I can keep my books on my Kindle as well as in my laptop and my main computer. And the ease of getting a book is so dangerous. But I'm a product of the digital age. I listen to my music on my phone or old ipod or computer. I read books on the computer or kindle. I wonder if someday physical books will be where vinyl is now.
