An Overview
E-readers make it simple to tote dozens, even hundreds, of books on the go. Of the eight e-readers we're highlighting here, all but two models employ a paper-like E Ink display for easy-on-the-eyes text that you can read in bright sunlight. Two LCD-based devices make the cut, too: the Barnes & Noble Nook Color, which does a great job of rendering text, and the nearly ubiquitious, multipurpose Apple iPad 2.
Amazon Kindle DX
Comparatively speaking, the Kindle DX remains expensive--$379 for a 9.7-inch E Ink e-reader, the same price as the least-expensive 10.1-inch Android tablet you can buy. But really, it remains a great choice if you plan to read a lot of material that's optimized for the large screen (say, textbooks as opposed to trade paperbacks). The DX is too heavy to hold in one hand, but it sure beats lugging around a 500-page tome.
