Last Christmas Amazon introduced the Kindle eBook reader, but it was sold out immediately. Amazon just did not have enough available. This holiday season you can give the Kindle as a gift as stock of the eBook reader seems solid. Additionally Amazon squashed rumors about a new Kindle version to be released this fall. So Kindle is still the best choice for an eBook reader with huge content offering.

Amazon says that 145,000 eBooks (books, magazines and newspapers) are available now for Kindle. Kindle holds over 200 titles and Kindle does not use WiFi, but EVDO like cell phones.

The Good:
Sharp ePaper display
Easy to use
EVDO connectivity to download books from everywhere

The Bad:
Boring Design

Where to Buy:
Kindle sells on Amazon.com for $359.
