thank you very much that was alot of help and by the way i was talking about the black and white nook.

You are more than welcome. I will add one other comment. I started out with the B&W Nook and really liked it a lot. When I upgraded to the Color Nook I enjoyed the additional features, but the one drawback I've found is, having Internet Access and games on the Nook Color has a tendency to distract me from my reading. With the B&W Nook I was really getting wrapped up with my reading again and now I find it way to easy to surf the web or get in a quick round of Spider Solitaire or Angry Birds instead.

I happen to love music and I was also thinking about the ipod touch do you happen to know anything about that? If you dont that's ok.

You might think i am older then i really am. the truth is i am 15 and my name is Alyssa.

Nice to meet you Alyssa, my name is Bill and I have two nieces your age.

Sorry, I don't know much about the iPod Touch. I have Microsoft's Zune for my music and use the Zune Pass which is a subscription service that I pay $14.99 a month for unlimited music from their library. It's more like renting though as I would lose access to all of it if I let the subscription run out. Unfortunately they don't make the Zune any longer, but I can use my Zune Pass on my Zune, My Windows Phone, and my PC so I'm still set.

I don't think you can go wrong with the iPod Touch as the Apple ecosystem is extremely popular so you would have access to the iTunes Library and I would imagine a lot of your friends also have Apple products. I primarily work with Microsoft products in my job so I tend to buy their products. However, I am not anti Apple and my general advice is to see what your friends, family, etc. have and then pick your device based on that. That way you have support, ways to share things, etc. Good luck with your decision.
