Pros Clarity of the text, free wireless services by Sprint, PDF support, free book previews.
Cons Not all books have been digitized, no built in back light, folders to organize, cost.
Recommended it? Yes

I was not interested in an "ebook" reader when the first Kindle came to market but I've quickly realized how valuable the Kindle to be.

Pros Great Design, Compact
Cons No backlight, Expensive
Recommended it? Yes

Amazon's Kindle is far from the first ebook reader, but the design and the timing was right, and they have been able to solve the chicken and egg by providing plenty of good e-book content and slick distribution.
