- The Best E-Reader Hands DownI checked out all the other E-readers out there. None compare to the Kindle.

I couldn't be happier.

- Kindle device is greatHave not had this long but am enjoying. I was not sure when I bought it if I would like it as I really do like the old fashioned books, but it is so light and easy to use. I love the dictionary function means I can easily look up a work when previously I would have just skipped over it.
