Thanks tamma. I'm in the US.

I appreciate everyone's help. Not rushing to get it. Doing my research first :-) I had no idea that there were so many different book readers lol

The Nook at Barnes & Noble is $149.00.

That's not a bad deal.

The $149 Nook has only Wi-Fy capability. For many folks that is fine. If you want to be able to download when away from a Wi-Fy hotspot, then the version of Nook that does that, through a 3-G network (like Kindle does), is $199.
