I got an early Barnes and Noble Nook (not the 3G or Color) as a present for my Sister. It (they) have a lending feature as well as the ability to download books from other sources other than B&N. Library and OverDrive dot com connection; certain PDF and other formats. MP3 and WMA Audio Books as well.

You can put a MicroSD chip in and expand the capacity also. A great deal for th $150 USD that I paid.
