Have you used other ebook readers?

My mother in law had a nook, and that was one of the worst goddamned devices i'd ever used. Low res screen and cheap buttons, buttons that you had to use all the time because the touch controls were so awful. The interface was just extraordinarily bad.

I hate to say it, but the Kindle line are the best devices on the market for ebooks. But I'd pay a little extra if Besos got kicked in the balls with every purchase.
