RE: Whats the best e-reader?

I suggest Kindle. It’s the best e-reader I have ever used. I am using Kindle for more than one year.

RE: Whats the best e-reader?

Well, time will tell if we made the right choice or not, 'cos we went to John Lewis yesterday and bought a Nexus 7.

Not read anything on it yet, but the rest of the functionality seems very good so even if it's not great to read from, I don't think it'll be a waste of money......I'll just get a Kindle too. Smile

Currys is offering £15 discount on Nexus 7. John Lewis can price match it within 28 days of purchase.

It had to be Bluewater as we had a £60 Bluewater gift card. Only places we could find selling the Nexus 7 were JL & Currys, both had it at £200.

I've been using the Nexus 7 for three days and it's excellent. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a tablet for under £200.
