I only know of Kindle and the Sony Reader. I'm actally recieving the Sony Reader as a gift in the mail soon and am very excited! It has a touch screen and I can store notes on it and, well, I just can't wait to use it. Does anyone else own either, and what are your thoughts/reviews on them?

I don't own one, but I was talking with someone about them just yesterday, actually. I know they're supposed to be really great, but I just can't imagine reading something that isn't on paper when it comes to reading books.

I was supposed to be getting one for Christmas however, my husband and I decided that a laptop would be better because I could still read PDF files on it and also use it to work on, etc. I still want an e-reader though! I have looked at the Kindle, Sony's E-Reader, and the Nook and when I compared them I thought that the Kindle came out on top with all the features.

I'm really interested in one of these, however they are really expensive from what I can see. Are there many books available to download? Do you buy individual downloads or what? How does it work?

[Narnian]

The devices themselves cost a few hundred dollars, but I think the ebooks cost less than actual books, so buy a few hundred books and you'll save money. The Sony Ereader also can play music I think, and the Kindle can go on Wikipedia.

I have two Ebook reader programs for the iPhone, and I know that its different but I am not very impressed. I'd rather have a real book that I can touch, I can feel, and I can...... well, smell. I like the way that books smell.
