New Tablet
Finally decided to upgrade my original Kindle to a 10" tablet. I'm starting to read a lot of pdfs with graphics & charts and converting pdf to ebook format usually destroys them. Also my company offers subscription to Safari books online. Trying to read them on the Kindle was an exercise in frustration.
I ended up purchasing this: Amazon.com : Dragon Touch A1X Plus 10.1" Quad Core Tablet PC Google Android 4.4.2 KitKat, 1GB RAM, 16GB Nand Flash, Built-in Bluetooth GPS, HDMI, Google Play Pre-installed, Dual Camera, 3D Game Supported, 2015 New Model [ by TabletExpress ] : Compute. It's a lowend tablet, but my requirements aren't high.

That is pretty cheap. Let us know how it goes after some time with it. I hate reading books on a computer, this could be a viable option.Currently Working On

kohr-ah Member Posts: 1,277Glad to hear it is well
8" I have been very happy with an nVidia Shield Tablet but I am not sure if you want to spend that kind of money
