I'll get around to doing a spec comparison. But on the surface, the absence of the waterproof feature is a deal-breaker for me. Same price. Might be a good time to see what Kobo is offering. #nook #nookglowlightplus #nookglowlight3 #nookglowlightupgrade #ereader
TheBookDream I was baffled by the lack of waterproof feature, until I realized that it's probably not a super popular feature amongst their target demographic, which I am increasingly thinking is senior citizens who enjoy being able to go to the store for tech help. The buttons were really popular so putting them back was a good move. (edited) 6y
TheBookDream Also, the glowlight plus is AWESOME for being waterproof and I love it for that, but it is by FAR the most temperamental to operate, and is heavy to boot. I use mine for waterproof situations almost exclusively, and one of the regular glow lights for everything else. 6y
Donna_sBookMinute @TheBookDream — The GLP is my very first ereader; so I have nothing to compare it to. But I do agree that it‘s heavy. For some reason, I‘m drawn to Kobo. Guess I‘ll see what they‘re offering now. I don‘t think the Canada base would be an issue. #nook #nookglowlightplus #nookglowlight3 #nookglowlightupgrade #ereader #kobo (edited) 6y
TheBookDream I don't think you can put Nook books on Kobo anymore FYI. Unless you get a tablet with a Nook reader installed. 6y
Donna_sBookMinute @TheBookDream — I would order the books from Kobo. Haven‘t thought everything through, though. 6y
