J.R Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I wouldnt get anything that is specific for books. Why spend all that money for something that ONLY does books? Get an Ipad if you can afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get an Ipad if you can afford it. Ive heard you can unlock the color nook, and its basically a tablet. One of my tech nerd friends said that.

jackaninny Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I would check and see what platform works best with the books/classes your school offers. The bookstore should have some input on that for you. I have an iPad and I find it very easy to read - most of my material is in ePub or PDF format.

Blues Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Android tablets are inexpensive compared to the iPad, and much more useful than a reader. Tons of apps available and lots of support in the on-line community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

defigart Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 Thanks everyone for your input. Im going to use my netbook for awhile and then possibly get a tablet, if I like going digital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
