What kinds of titles did you not find?

I do not remember, but a lot of history and engineering type
books. A lof of books published some years ago. Nothing rare or very
unusual.

Kindle can't read epub, which seriously limits it. Which also
prevents it from being able to read library ebooks,
which are usually drm epub format. Amazon admits to doing that on
purpose to force people into buying their ebooks and it only has
internal memory, no expansion memory card support.

I narrowed my choices down to the wifi Nook, but they still cost more
than I'm willing to spend on one... There are more models still
coming out so maybe something better will turn up if I keep
waiting ;-)
