I've got the iPad and use it for DC, Image and Comixology apps. The screen is nice and bright. I like the comixology technology, but sometimes when you read a double page spread in the "animated view", images can get blurry. Other than that, i love using it for comics.

The best part about it is that i can clear off a lot of shelf space for other things. I still get the Green Lantern hard covers and will pick up Mike's Atomica and 20th special, but i am done collecting long and short boxes.

Plus...I got my Kindle! So I have both the iPad and the Kindle. Like Ralph said, for comics, nothing beats the iPad for now, for reading books, the e-ink on the Kindle is fantastic, getting books is a snap and they do have a loan feature now too like the Nook. Plus, if this is important to you, the Kindle is lighter than the Nook.

I'm going back in time, hoping to attain massive tomes to line my home with. Eventually I want to build a home where the walls are bookcases.

... all this studying tonight is getting to me. I'll go take my insanity someplace else.
