    I've looking at getting an E-Book reader for a while now and looks like I'll be buying one next week or so. Anybody have any experience with one, like convenience and stuff lie that? Or suggestions on which to buy? I was looking at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... _-58201036 that one but dunno what else is out there. I'm gonna be spending about $500 on it

    Iphone/iPod touch has Stanza, which then you can buy books off of and read.

    I encountered this for the first time when some guy was showing it off to my parents while we were getting onto a plane. it definitely has a lot of features, but I don't think I could stand reading without the feel of the spine in my hand. I slightly shudder at the thought, but it certainly is convenient, and probably well worth the money. the guy said it was the best purchase he had ever made
