![]() ![]() I like to separate per favorite author and then by genre. Nook's just does not give you enough catagories and/or the ability to add/delete them yourself. Not so with the just zips right along no matter how many e-books you load in PDF format on the microSD card! PC software-easy to use.Ĭons: Nook PC software-while easy to use it does not compare to Sony's 'Reader for PC' software, which allows you to add/delete e-book groups yourself-which also slows down after 500 or so e-books. When asked why, Sony said the book covers in PDF format slow it down. Sony's PRS-T1 can't handle very many e-books-it slows down around 500, freezes and you have to do a 'hard reset' often, to get it to work right for a little while. Easy to set-up and use the menus, wireless, lettering font/size, and does not slow down when using a microSD card with 1620 e-books on it in PDF format, which is why I tried out the Nook Simple Touch and the Kobo Touch. Pros: Better e-ink display/contrast then the Sony PRS-T1, and Kobo Touch. But as an E-reader only, I love this series and the GlowLight series of e-ink readers. Remember that E-ink experience is pretty much for black-and-white, low-refresh-rate activities, and cannot provide a "tablet" experience. I stare at LCD at work for 9+ hours per day, so I find E-ink easier on the eyes when reading for that extra 45-90 minutes in the evening. Setting up for borrowing from public library (via Adobe Digital Editions) might be a bit fussy the first time it is easy to use after setup and first sync. Easy to understand interface, and plenty of online tutorials to assist. Battery life, for some reason, seems a little shorter than the GlowLight version (maybe different size battery) but only going from 100% to 68% in a week of use, the battery life is more than sufficient. I purchased because my Mother broke her GlowLight version, I gave her my GlowLight version (since I rarely used the light), and I purchased this as my replacement. This is an older model B&N nook, with good (not adjustable) contrast and low glare. ![]()
