I have the $79 Kindle and it's pretty great. Tiny and lightweight and can hold up to 1,000 books. I use Calibre to convert formats to .mobi so I haven't had any issues yet with being locked into reading certain books. The only thing I don't like about it is I have to have a light for it if I'm not in a really bright area, but that's because I have bad eyesight, not the e-ink's fault.

However, once I have money I'm going to buy the Nook Color. It's a great e-reader and I can buy a rooted SD card to use when I want a more full-blown Android tablet experience. That seems like the best of both worlds to me.

As for the iPad...seems like it would be great for mindless fun, but it's too expensive and too big/heavy to use as an e-reader. If i really wanted to use an Apple product for reading I'll just stick with my iPhone and various apps.

I'm not a fan of how some of these prints are glossing over certain issues from the South. Seems a bit too "the South will rise again!" trashy to me.

I guess I'm a bad Southerner.
