Barnes and Noble nook soft touch glowlight alternative

elantan

Hi all,

wonder if anyone can help me, i really like the look of the nook soft touch glowlight and have emailed and phoned to see if they are U.K compatible and if they will ship to the U.K, i have finally found out that no they are only available in the U.S.A,

does anyone know of an alternative that i can possibly try? i have heard that Kindle will have one out in July possibly but cant find out if this is for deff and when in July ( i want it for going away in August)

thanks in advance

You are asking about a US only product which probably very few people will know about in the UK and arent saying what about it is appealing to you.

It may be much easier if you simply say that you want an ebook reader with the features...... and list the features you want

that makes sense sorry for not making it clear

i fancy an e-reader with e ink so that i can read it in the sun i am also looking for one with an integrated light which is why the nook soft touch glow light was looking good to me, i will mainly be reading in the light but do wish to be able to read it in bed without disturbing the husband,

i dont fancy a light attatchment as it doesnt light up the full of the e-reader evenly,

i dont need wi fi as i wont be downloading books whilst out an about i will down load to my laptop then transfer from there to the e reader, i am not looking for anything fancy ( although maybe having the ability to read the e-reader in the dark might be fancy) i dont need games or anything purely a machine that does away with carrying loads of books on holiday and can be carried about whilst out and about

Basically, if you can't get the Nook Glowlight, you'll need to decide how important it is to you to be able to read in the dark, vs having an e-ink screen, as the Glowlight is the only e-ink reader with an integrated light. If you can get the Glowlight, no problem, but otherwise you'll have to choose between the two (read in the dark but not e-ink, or e-ink but not readable in the dark without an accessory light).
