    *Looks up Nook* Huh, doesn't look half bad. I've been trying to justify getting a tablet and more or less failing, but with the Xbox One coming out, I'm really itching to get one. Most of the ones I've seen are in the $300 range, which for one or two things I'd do with it is too much. But $150 is much more reasonable.

    I don't suppose you've tried the Battlefield 4 Commander mode on it have you? :P

    Find a used 2012 Nexus 7 for $125. Its the best value out there.

    I got the Kindle Fire for Christmas and think it's great. The new Kindle HDX is coming out this month and looks like it may be my next one.

    I have the Fire HD 10" wonder what the HDX will offer, for the price point.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    I've got a galaxy note 10.1 with the s-pen. I like it runs everything just fine. If you dig around on slickdeals they're on clearance all over the place. Picked mine up refurbed for $260ish on groupon.com

    This is just my opinion but

    if you want to watch movies and play on the internet, read comic books/graphic novels etc.. get a normal android tablet. Unless you want to spend the extra cash for apple then get a ipad.

    If you plan to read lots of non picture books get a kindle paperwhite. Not the Fire. The paperwhite e-ink display is way easier on the eyes to read long term, batteries last forever between charges, its lighter, and pretty cheap to boot. The regular kindle or DX are both great too if you don't mind using an external book light if you read in bed.

    If you want to do both then buy both devices.

    I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10, a rooted Nook Color that I don't use since getting the galaxy, Kindle paperwhite, regular 2nd gen kindle (replaced by the paperwhite), and the wife had a kindle fire that she just gave to a family member and a kindle fire HD that she uses regularly.
