We have a Nook with e-ink. Wonderful on the eyes; I can read for hours and hours with no eye strain, tearing, dryness or headache/migraines.
We are able to download books from the library easily with it.
Touch screens are not for me; I can't stand reading through a ton of fingerprints:tongue_smilie:.
*We will be getting a Kindle for Christmas, just to have another option with e-ink.
*DD will be getting the color Nook for her gift.
Enjoy which ever you choose, I was so resistant to an ereader, but I'm a convert it easier on my eyes than a regular book.
