(Yes I do active stuff outdoors too - but I also enjoy reading there!)

If you enjoy reading let me suggest a very inexpensive and enjoyable device that will let you read everywhere without regard to overheating or someone stealing your elctronic device.

It's called a book. Works every time and never overheats (Well I guess it does overheat at 451 deg F)

See my response to Mr. 6-pack for part of the answer.

I forgot to mention also that taking a several hundred book library to the beach isn’t too practical except with the Kindle or other e-reader. The small Kindle is more compact and lighter than a single paperback.

Another interesting point is that while someone could walk off with my physical book, there is no way for anyone to steal my e-books. :-)

Yeah, but you can't play Angry Birds on it.
