I found the article in the December 2010 issue of Consumer Reports (use the term "e-book readers" for the best results). It gave top ratings to the Kindle and Nook. I my own personal self have a Kindle and think it is the bee's knees. I can't get library books on it, but I don't feel so bad about that, since I have an abundance of delightfully obscure titles, such as: Arts and Crafts in the Middle Ages A Description of Mediaeval Workmanship in Several of the Departments of Applied Art, Together with Some Account of Special Artisans in the Early Renaissance, Camp Life in the Woods and the Tricks of Trapping and Trap Making, and How I Found Livingstone; travels, adventures, and discoveres in Central Africa, including an account of four months' residence with Dr. Livingstone, by Henry M. Stanley, to name just a few. For free, my friends. Things I never even knew I wanted to read until I saw the titles. For free. I did shell out 99 cents for the complete works of Rudyard Kipling, and History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, all six volumes, with active table of contents, by Mr. Edward Gibbons. Such a bargain. If I were in the market for a new e-reader, I would still choose the Kindle for it's delightful ease of use and pleasant reading experience.
But I can't download library books onto it, this is true. So I'll pretend I've got the Nook for the first three steps: 1. Wake the blasted Nook up. 2. Connect it to my computer. 3. Download Adobe Digital Editions.
P.S. I don't much like worms, but bookworms are OK.
