[LM_NET] HIT: GEN: Off-topic: Sony Reader Daily Edition PRS-900

[Toni Koontz <fussbgt@SBCGLOBAL.NET>]

I received some very good responses.  Both the Nook and the Sony have WiFi 
capabilities so I can download books  easily almost anywhere. They are not 
proprietary so I can download from my public library and from other sites.  They 
are lightweight, easy to use.  I am leaning toward the Nook because of its touch 
screen  controls. They were easier and more intuitive to use I felt. I alos liked 
some of the features of the Nook , such as being able to read books for free inthe 
store, to preview books easily and even be offered specials and coupons when you 
come in with the Nook.  The protective covers that you can get are really nice and 
make it seem as if you are using a book.
