IPad, I had a kindle, thought it was the greatest thing ever until I got an Ipad, downloaded the kindle app and everything from kindle transferred, and was hooked.  I enjoy reading more on the ipad than the kindle as well.  Way more versatile, as well, with the games, google features, etc.

Well - I went with the Kindle. We have enough Internet access that it just didn't seem necessary to go for an iPad - maybe in a year or so. I set up the WiFi access code for our home, which is easy.
She played with it a bit and got some reading material and likes it. I got a hold of it this evening and searched around - found a book called "How to make a Profit Buying & Selling Antiques & Collectibles Without Really Trying" and accidentally gave it an $8 try (inadvertently hit the BUY button when I just wanted to check it out). Funny how the link is positioned smack dab on the BUY button when you check out a title! Oh well - so far the book has some pretty simple yet sage advice that all collectors could take heed from, but I am ony at Ch. 2; however, it does appear to have some interesting chapters. Then my 9-Y-O wanted to see what was available from him and now within four hours I'm $28 down! As long everybody reads them, I can never complain and never will.


Thanks for everyone's input - you helped greatly! It was/is a hit!
