Curious if either of you have opinions on a cheap tablet? I'd like to get an ebook reader, but the B&W ones aren't really conducive for reading literature with images, such as scientific publications or textbooks.
I guess the battery life would be a lot shorter, but is it really easier to read on the kindle screen than a glass-covered LCD?

I absolutely love my Amazon Kindle Keyboard and find it to be the ideal ereader.

I had a very rough time reading on LCD based displays (iPad in my case) for any stretch of time. To elaborate, I found myself having headaches if I read on it for more than an hour. With the Kindle, I can read for hours on in and not have any issues.
