Last year was definitely the year of the Kindle - we've seen a whole new generation of eBook readers come out, finally making this gadget category popular. To help you navigate the eBook reader waters, we spent the last few days compiling a table comparing some of the biggest eReader devices:

• Spring Design Alex
• Barnes & Noble Nook
• Amazon Kindle 2
• Amazon Kindle DX

If a category has a winner, it is highlighted in bold (in some cases there could be more than one winner).
