Ereaders - are they still a decent gift? Any advice?

thanks

Running out of time for a gift for my wife.

I have a kobo it's ok.find it a bit slow when your searching for books to buy even the website using a desktop was a bit of a pain. However I haven't used it for a while due to being busy so they may have updated and fixed the problems.

It's great if like me you enjoy reading more than one book at a time and great for holidays etc.

My brother uses a kindle fire which you can use for other stuff as well as just reading.

Brilliant for reading on the move or in bed. Get her a kindle with fifty shades on and you might even get your leg over.

I have a kindle paperwhite and its brilliant. No glare when your in the sun on it like a tablet and can read it in the dark at night when in bed.

Well worth it! If yer like reading, that is! I've got one of the old ones and it's used every day! Wonderful and much more than just a gadget. Love the dictionary where yer can look the word up in a couple o' clicks!

Bought the book last year but no such luck! Skimmed through it and even I though it was useless.

Thanks everyone. I think I'll go the Kindle road so. Tescos here I come! :-)

Not been paying much attention to it.

Is Phil not back on the booze?

I have a standard Kindle. I should've bought the Paperwhite but it's still damn useful.

Would you like to carry all those big books? that answers the question..
