Barnes Noble Nook Ebook Reader
The new Barnes & Noble Nook Ebook Reader has a lot of features that the Amazon Kindle eReader does not and is now offered in two version, WiFi only for $149 and WiFi+3G at $199. You can read the Nook vs Kindle eBook reader comparison to see a side by side comparison review.Here are some features on the Nook Reader that is not available on the Kindle Wireless Reader:
- Has both 3G and Wi-Fi-enabled download capabilities
- Color touch screen for navigation
- Has ability for user to increase memory by using the Micro SD expansion slot - a 16GB card holds up to 17,500 eBooks**
- More than a million titles available

- Directly load & read PDFs into your Nook Book Reader

The fact that you can share your ebooks with others is a pretty neat feature that the Nook Reader has and the current Kindle lacks. Barnes & Noble says you can share ebooks with others for up to 14 days, so I guess it is not a permanent feature - otherwise nobody would buy new books! What is even better, your friends do not even have to own a nook - ebooks can be transferred to iPhones, iPod Touch, Blackberries and other PCs or Macs!
Another biggie with the Nook eReader is the fact that you can download books, magazines, newspapers, etc. not only through AT&T 3G Wireless network (Kindle uses Sprint), but also through Wi-Fi. Barnes and Noble stores have free Wi-Fi, so you can always download books at the B&N Bookstore.
