[Highland Park] Kindle or Nook...what's the deal?
by Denny 28 Apr '10

28 Apr '10

Looking to purchase an e-reader but undecided as to which one. Any input or personal experiences would be appreciated to help make this decision. Reading the 'head to head' reviews doesn't really give 'real life' meaning to me. Would like to hear from owners themselves. Thanks in advance, denny
