Anyone have a Kindle?

1 Answer

Answer :

I think I would choose the Sony Reader over the Kindle, because you can put any PDF on it. It’s a much more open format, and you’re not bound to Amazon’s (lackluster) online selection. Wired has a good comparison between the two. I think the best option would be “None of the above”: these things are going to be much nicer and much cheaper next year.
