So I'm currently borrowing my aunt's Kindle and I think I need an ebook reader of my very own. Car repairs mean I won't have the money for at least a month, but does anyone have any recs? Anti-recs?* Links to awesome sites with lots of fanfic ebooks?**

*I will not be getting a Kindle, because a) I hate Amazon and b) I pretty much hate the Kindle; why can't I skip to the last chapter? Why does it not tell me anywhere I can find how to follow the stupid quick links? Why does the user manual give me sort options that do not appear on the screen at any point?

**I know you can use fanfic downloaders and convertor programs and make ebooks, but I am laaazy. Everything I've put on the Kindle comes from this Ebook Library or Ralst's page here.

Coming back because I just remembered this post: http://dearauthor.com/wordpress/2010/05/16/dear-jane-what-ebook-reader-should-i-buy/

It's from a few months ago but it covers the various considerations that come into play when deciding on an e-reader.
