Amazon's brand new kindle 3 and Apple's iPad are the hottest electronics devices on the store today. As for eBook eReaders, which is the best? Let's compare Apple's iPad vs kindle 3 from Amazon and maintain a winner here.

First we need to figure out what we are doing here. Are we comparing two all-in-one devices? No we are not. We are comparing a device that declares that it is a magical device that can do whatever that practically any electronic device can do, vs an ebook reader.

Kindle

The Apple iPad as an ebook reader leaves some things to be desired...as an ebook reader. On the other hand, as an electronic device, it leaves miniature to be desired. As soon as man can think of an additional one use the iPad needs, man comes out with an application, and voila! Now it can be used for that as well.

But as an ebook reader, the iPad has one fatal flaw. It creates eye-strain because of the back lighting of the device. It is also difficult to read in highly interesting conditions, such as a sunny day outside, because of this back lighting.

The kindle 3 on the other hand is designed for this purpose and this purpose alone. The kindle 3 uses E-Ink technology on it's screen. Sure, this is a dull finding gray-scale display. Sure, you have to use push buttons for the sailing keyboard (push buttons!?), but for a comfortable and convenient ebook reading experience, the Kindle 3 does well.

Conclusion- Are we all getting the point here? It categorically comes down to what kind of device you want, right? It practically doesn't make sense to talk about the devices in the same article...almost.

It's arguable that man finding for the best ebook reader available would think, "I might as well step it up and get an all-in-one device and buy the iPad". But I don't believe it.

I don't think many citizen finding for an ebook reader are are going to rule to buy an iPad. They are going to look for an ebook reader, because they want to enhance their reading experience, not their gaming and video watching and all things else experience. Besides, the price unlikeness is just too large.

So we have just compared the iPad vs Kindle 3, but those who want an ebook reader aren't going to be persuaded to buy the iPad by comparing it to the Kindle 3.
