Why you shouldn’t buy that e-reader

A tech writer outlines why you shouldn’t get an e-reader this Giftmas.

E-book readers: The market for electronic books sure is heating up. Barnes & Noble just unveiled the Nook, its stylish competitor to Amazon’s Kindle. In December, Sony will add a new model to its line of e-book devices—the Daily Reader, which features a touch-screen interface and, like the Nook and Kindle, wireless book downloads. There’s also a new reader from Irex and a slate of colored Cool-Er readers from the British company Interead.

This isn’t a good time to buy any of them.

Call me paranoid if you will, but while they may not be out to get us yet, there’s every chance they could be out to get us in the future. In the long term, paranoia pays off…
