[QUOTE="atiamd, post: 1207371, member: 28907"] For a budget of $300, get a Kindle DX ($379). Its a 9.7 inch reader. Amongst the 6" ones, I would say, go for Sony touch PRS 650. It comes at $227 + taxes + covers =~$280 (And, dont even think for a moment that you will be able to have a reader without a cover). Advantages/disadvantages: [url=http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2010/10/02/kindle-3-vs-sony-prs-650-with-video-review/]Kindle 3 vs Sony PRS-650 Review with Video | The eBook Reader Blog[/url] If you are getting a Kindle 3, go for the wifi version. The 3G is not available in India. Only EDGE/GPRS is available. And there is a map that gives the details: [url]http://client0.cellmaps.com/viewer.html?cov=1[/url] Notice, how all of India is marked in light purple showing that only EDGE/GPRS is available. Now, I dont know what will be the speed difference between 3G and edge/GPRS, but do know that using EDGE/GPRS consumes more battery than using 3G. This information is available on Amazon under battery life for 3G models. Read it closely. Dont go for Nook. It looks awesome when you read the reviews, but spend some time on mobileread.com and you will see that many people are complaining about it. And, no offense Sei. This is just for his information. And you know that I appreciate all the help that you gave me. :) [/QUOTE]
