In this episode of D3Live I compare the third generation Amazon Kindle against the Barnes and Noble Nook and the Apple iPad to help you decide which is the best ereader available. Starting at $139 the Amazon Kindle 3 Wi-Fi model is undoubtedly a great price for a very solid product. The Barnes and Noble Nook also has a lot going for it for only $149 for the Wi-Fi only model as it contains both a standard E-Ink display as well as a 3.5 inch color touch screen. Lastly there is the Apple iPad which while it starts at $499 for the Wi-Fi only variant there’s no doubt it does much more than an ordinary ereader. Be sure to watch the full video to find out which is the best ereader.

D3Live is a weekly show I do live every Saturday at 3PM Eastern time live on BlogTV. If you are interested in asking me questions for the video or just watching the show live keep an eye out as I will post a video here on YouTube before I begin. http://www.blogtv.com/people/duncan33303

http://www.ted.com Why do we make irrational decisions so predictably? Laurie Santos looks for the roots of human irrationality by watching the way our primate relatives make decisions. A clever series of experiments in “monkeynomics” shows that some of the silly choices we make, monkeys make too.
