I got a Kindle Fire for my b-day yesterday and I really like it. Does everything I want it to do and it’s a huge step up from the first gen Kindle that I had.
My daughter has a Nook and likes it too, but you can’t beat Amazon for electronic books. They have the largest selection and tons of them are free.
I’m with you.
I like my iPad and have bought about 30 books on it ... but, aside from an iPad, the Kindle Fire would be my choice. Agreed that Amazon has a real edge in many digital areas.
I like Kindle Fire. I’m using it now.

You can load the Kindle Reader on the Nook Tablet, so you can read books from either source on that one. Not the other way around.
My pick of those two is the Nook Tablet, but not entirely because of the above. Its specs are much better than the Fire, and it has a slot for a flash card so it’s infinitely expandable.
The only real downside to the Nook is that you can’t stream Amazon video, so if you’re an Amazon Prime member that might tip you back towards the Fire.
