There are so many questions that would define what you want to do with it. Personally, I use a Droid Xyboard.

Most readers these days (tablets usually) are good for so much more. It could be as simple as your current PC or Laptop.

You could be like my grandma. I got her an iMac years and years ago (original iMac) and she still uses it. She loves books but what she does is print a dozen or two pages at a time to read.

I won’t get into your business, but think about your typical day, do you use a lot of email, web, travel a lot, etc? If so, considering a higher end tablet may be the way to go. If you currently use a laptop and just get on the internet occasionally, you can use that or maybe a low cost Kindle.

Also think about how you enjoy reading. If it is at a desk, stick with your computer you are on now. Sitting back in a recliner, your laptop or a kindle. Anywhere and everywhere and you lug your laptop with you, consider a tablet.

Eh just thot a Kindle or Tablet would be good way to load up free books and a big space-saver when I travel. I usually take a laptop too, but it has large screen and battery life is more limited

-I don’t want to pay additional for 4G internet access on a Tablet, but would not mind wi-fi capabilities.

Really want Droid 4 phone...Bigger screen and nice keyboard, waiting for a deal :)
