Amazon Kindle

Pro

Battery life is long: Turn the wireless on and read for up to three weeks; turn the wireless off and read for a month. 4GB of memory means you can store 3,500 books. There is also a full range of magazines and newspapers to download. There is no glare to the screen, meaning you can read it in direct sunlight making it perfect for a day at the beach or an afternoon in your backyard. 

Con

No expansion slot for adding more memory. Battery is sealed into the device and isn't removable. Not compatible with loaner e-books from libraries that use the EPUB format.

Best For

Someone looking for a user friendly device who has a long reading list and doesn't usually buy books on the fly.

Available from $139 on amazon.com
