How to Replace Your Sony PRS-600 Battery

Which is the better eReader? Nook or Kindle?
for Christmas I want an eReader. My ideal one would be an ipad but it way too expensive. I want either the new nook or new kindle (not the color ones). Which is better battery life wise, cost of EBook, better design, etc. My mom has the second generation kindle and its ok. Any info on the 2 would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hi, Twilighter4Life, you're really contradicting yourself when you say that you would prefer iPad (which is a color LCD screen) and then say "no color ones" for eReader. Kind of strange as I'd think having iPad as your #1 choice would make a color eReader your #2 choice... Anyway, here's what I think on the subject. I'll start with the battery - while it's nice to have your battery last two weeks on one charge (like of e-Ink eReaders), I doubt that's a requirement by anyone. Yes, it's good for bragging but who really needs it? Nobody has issues charging your device once a day like you already do with your mobile phone. As long as you get 8 hours on one charge, you're golden.
Kindle 3 is lighter and has a better screen and battery than Kindle 2. It's not a touchscreen, it's still e-Ink black & white screen. You should understand the limitations of e-Ink eReaders - they are limited to be black & white for now they "blink" at each ebook’s page turn, they're not too good for web browsing, they need external light source for reading when dark, and they cannot handle videos.
There's also similar Nook eReader devices available from Barnes & Noble that have a lot of advantages over Kindles such as:
1. Nook allows to lend books for 2 weeks to friends or to your other devices that run B&N app (PC, MAC, Android phones, Apple iPhone and iPad, etc.) Barnes & Noble allows (when you walk in with the Nook to B&N store) to read any available eBook for free while in the store via free provided in the store Wi-Fi. With Nook, while in BN store you get exclusive articles from top authors, and great offers including cafe treats and unique deals.
2. Nook (unlike Kindle) can be used for library ebooks
3. Nook (unlike Kindle) can be used for renting text-ebooks.
If you're willing to spend a bit more, you could get Nook Color from Barnes & Noble which is a hybrid Android device, much more than just an e-Reader but not a full tablet as it doesn't have a camera (but iPad also doesn’t have one.) Even though Nook Color has LCD touchscreen, it's a new generation screen which is anti-glare coated and is better performing in sunlight and produces less glare all of which are dooming reading on iPad. Also, the screen is amazing and readable/viewable at wide angles and it has USB port (unlike iPad).
Nook Color has several apps that already come with the device (Pandora Internet radio, QuickOffice, etc.) Also, Barnes & Noble recently released Nook SDK and Nook Developer platform that will allow most of the existing 100,000 Android apps be ported to it. You can use the Social Settings screen to link your NOOKcolor to your Facebook account and your Twitter account. You can also import all your contacts from your Google Gmail account. Once you have linked to Facebook and Twitter and set up email contacts, you can lend and borrow books, recommend books, and share favorite quotes with your friends.
If all you want is to read novels, the original e-Ink Nook might be better for you. If you want something more from your device (color graphs and charts of college text books, childrens books, photos and videos, web sites) at half of the price of iPad or Galaxy tab, then Nook Color is your best bet.
