A lot of people say they don’t like reading books on an LCD screen, but many of them might change their minds if they turned down the brightness of the backlight.
huffingtonpost: Nook Review: Barnes & Noble’s eReader Is A MESS http://bit.ly/51AW73
^^I don’t have a Nook (does anyone without the special hookup have one yet?) I have a Kindle reader and the Kindle app for iPhone/iPod Touch. The touch screen is lots of fun if you’re reading for a few minutes. Just about anyone would get a kick out of the finger page swiping alone. But when you need to read for hours it gets tiring fast. And turning down the backlight is not the issue. You also have a couple of choices for the appearance of your the Kindle app page – but that doesn’t make it a Kindle. In the same way the pages of a print copy of say the Wall Street Journal don’t look like the pages of a glossy art book. Two different textures – two different appearances. Nitpicking that I suppose only the hardcore reader will get but this is what reading devices are designed for. People who are light readers or who only read for a few minutes at a time can easily make do with whatever computers or devices they already have if they want to read e-books. Anyway – follow the link below for the full review.
