Default Kindle

My husband and i both have Kindles. The price of the newest generation is $189..which has both WiFi and Wireless delivery. There is a $139. version for WiFi only. Yes, the print/font size can be changed. It holds thousand of books and the battery life is long..a couple of weeks if you read it without the wireless tirned on.

THe Sony requires a computer to transfer the book to the reading device, as does the Nook from Barnes and Noble. I have had a Kindle for 2 years, and just got the newest generation which has made some nice improvements. It is very convenient, you can mark passages, put bookmarks, look up words and listen to music while you read. Two thumbs up on Kindle.
