I already have a 10-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab and I use my Samsung Galaxy phone to do most of the things I’d use a small tablet for. It’s had a lot of use, and it’s beginning to show – the battery isn’t holding as much of a charge as it used to and there’s a loose connection in the pull-out case light. I’ve read more than 60 books on it, as well as numerous articles, stories, and web pages that I’ve downloaded to it with Instapaper and Calibre. ![]() I bought my first Kindle three years ago – a Kindle Keyboard 3G – and since then it’s become an indispensable part of my life. ![]()
