kindle vs Nook

[ceshkaravenstar]

I really think I want an e-reader. I am very torn as to which one I want. Well I am leaning in one direction. I want to hear what you all think, if you have one, what research you have done . . . what you chose and why. And possibly why or why not to buy one.

I got a nook for Christmas last year, and I *love* it! One of the big advantages with the nook for me is the fact that they give out at least one free book every week. Sometimes those books are crap, but most of the time they are at least decent. They also go through periods where they release books in the Barnes & Noble Classics series (things like Pride and Prejudice, Dracula, and Little Women) for free. Also, if you have a problem with it or have questions you can take it to any Barnes & Noble store and get help. While you are there you can read books on your nook for free, and download exclusive content (usually essays and short articles, but sometimes recipes) to read later. Most books are available for both nook and the Kindle, and they are usually pretty close in price.

I am leaning toward the Nook, since the memory is expandable, and the fact that you can use more than BN.com stuff, and the ability to lend,
