I have a Nook, and love it, sometimes get the free Friday books offered by B & N - the other free ones are mostly the ones published before 1923, some good classics available.
Can anyone who has had both Nook & Kindle comment on which they think is better, and why? Which has more free books available? I mostly download either free books or library books (from a library in Ohio right now), but have discovered that a lot of books are just not available as e-books. I tend to find a new-to-me author and then want to read all of their books.
I also have a stack of about 15 unread books I have picked up for next to nothing at garage sales - certainly not struggling to find things to read!
Thinking about getting a tablet - either the B & N tablet or the Kindle Fire, both as another reader for Ohioboy and a 2nd computer to take when traveling and also to have access to some of the neat apps that are out. I know we won't be able to share books between them, but as I understand it, with the Nook Simple Touch (which is only $79 bought on occasional specials), you can't share anyway, even with another Nook.
I'm trying to find out if I can download purchased books to my Macbook and then transfer to either a Nook or Kindle - anyone know that as well?

I just finished reading Loving Frank and all I can say is WOW....I am still not sure how I feel about this book. Intriguing....but disturbing, overall worth the read, especially if you are a Frank Lloyd Wright fan.
