If I were running a podcast (actually I do) I would resist the urge to get a USB mic. You can get decent hardware on a budget, under $200-250 in fact.
Get yourself a mixers with a compressor and an PC USB audio interface and you will thank yourself in the long run. People underestimate the value of hardware compressors and with a mixer you have room to grow in the future.
A "decent" starting vocal mic won't cost you much either,
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.
