Kindle v's Ipad?

[AnyDream]

I have a kindle and I love it. It's so light and comfy to hold, I can't imagine an ipad would be anything like that. The kindle's screen is done with "electronic ink" - so it doesn't shine into the back of your brain at bedtime LOL. I have a beautiful leather and microfibre cover on it, feels beautiful to hold, and a booklight that slots perfectly onto it so I can read in the middle of the night (like you do) without disturbing DH.

I would *love* an ipad, but not for reading books, only for internetty things.

I love my kindle. I have a tablet as well and wouldn't use it for reading as it is too heavy and the screen too bright. Kindle can go ages without needing a charge, tablet is every second day.
