    get the nexus 7

    I'm still using the first gen. that I bought several years ago when they first released and it's awesome.

    7 inch is better for a reader since you can hold it comfortably with one hand in portrait mode.

    Can't really beat it for the price either.

    I use Kobo app when reading downloaded/torrented ebooks. No problems, and the aesthetics are kickass.

    It really is amazing, it's lighter than a book and as readable or even better than a physical one. I've read 100's of books since they are widely available in torrents on the Web. Not to mention facilitating websites like mobilism.

    Well.....I have one and it works great. And the reviews all over the place are very good. And it's dirt cheap compared to others.

    For $125 you are not going to beat it.

    Thanks.

    Imafellowknickfan, i want 10 inches because i read a lot of comics, and 7 inches you need to move it around, and i don't like that much.
