I want a Nook

I have decided that I truly want a Nook. They are the best thing ever! I really want to see if I can read all the books that I put on it too. It's like an ipod for books. I know they have an Ipad out too thats supposed to do that too but this one is through B&N and they gaurantee that your bookshelf will be saved. Plus I won't ever loose a book again. I have had it with loosing all my books. This last time when I lost 2 series I had bought really pissed me off. That's over $200 that I spent in books. I want to hold off on buying them again and just putting them on my Nook rather than the paperback that I could loose again. I also have a habit of buying books with friends and forgetting what I bought bc when I finish them I pass them on. I just have to remember at Christmas time for ppl to get me B&N cards so when I get one I can get started right away!
