I have gone through all sorts of eReaders since they first came out, including the Kindle, which I gave to my sister once I got the basic iPad.

The iPad wins for the following reasons. I like to read in bed at night, and the Kindle is hard to read that way, unless you have a much better light than the little one they sell. The iPad is perfect for that.

I can sync books between my iPad, my iPhone, and my laptop, having a copy on each.

I can sync & listen to an Audible book on all three as well. I like to knit while I listen, so I can be productive while listening.

I can shop around for the best price on a book I want to read, seeing if Amazon, Apple, eReader, or any other seller is cheapest. The apps are available for just about any version.

I can check my email, look something up on the net that I am reading about, and take notes. I can listen to all kinds of radio stations on my iPad, like Coast to Coast AM, when I can’t sleep at night. Love the “Iheartradio” app!

And, I can watch movies, tv shows, etc. on my iPad, and take my knitting patterns along in “GoodReader”, a pdf app.

There is more, but you get the picture. I really find the iPad the best, so far. And, like all Apple products, it is easy to use, easy to keep updated, and beautifully designed.
