I need an Ereader.

Kindle paper white: cheap, can read in sun or night, huge selections of reading material lots free. Only drawback it sometimes is slow to download books.

One huge advantage of the e-ink readers that I see is that they do not emit the blue wavelengths that affect sleep.

Sony reader for your Smart Phone/Computer (Search for NOOK in app store) should work... Why carry 2 devics when one can do it.. You will be able to connect to your account and d/l all the books you have purchsed.

Same as I do with my Kindle App on everything I have.

X2, the wife loves her Kindle Paperwite. Returned the Kindle Fire because to can use it outside in bright sun. The Paper White is the very best IMO and works great in bright sun. If you read outdoors this feature is a must. Pretty much nothing with an LCD screen will be readable outside.

My husband and I just traded in our first generation Nooks for brand new Nooks by Samsung. Exactly the same as the Galaxy Tab 4 with a specialized Nook look. Love them so far! We got $50 for each old Nook so the total cost for each new one was approximately $106. This is a special trade in deal at BN running through the middle of June. Well worth it for us.

I just did the same thing. Traded my old Nook with the dying battery for the small Samsung tablet with the Nook application. It's a Samsung Galaxy Tab4 7.0

You can also trade in an old Nook on a larger Samsung Tablet.

List on the small one is $150, minus trade in of $50.

The advantage is that you also have a small tablet in addition to it being a reader.

Note - I believe this is a 'normal' Samsung tablet with the Nook app added to it. The attraction is that any old Nook is worth $50 in trade.

The promotion is on the B&N website. Or just go into any B&N store.

For book reading, the Paper White is hard to beat. Great for sunlight or dark conditions. Long battery life. If you have unrestricted epub format books on your computer you can convert them to Kindle (Mobi) format using Calibri, free download converter.

Kindle Paper White is my primary for all the reasons stated by other owners and I keep my books synced with my iPhone Kindle app for those times you just get stuck waiting. Amazing how much you read in a day if your current book is always in your pocket and synced to the book you read at home.

Also a fan of eReaderIQ you can tag authors or books for when the price drops and you can sign up for a custom daily mailing of free and reduced price books that match your profile. They also have an add on for Chrome to make it easy to tag books and check past pricing.

Kindle Paper White has been my choice for the past several years. I sold my regular Kindle to get it. I have only purchased a few books in 5 years. There are so many free ones in Kindle format and epub (Nook) are easily converted by Calibre.
