Quote - "Well, that's the next conundrum: iPhone with Siri, or utter coolness of Android? Then there are the providers.... when did life get so complicated?"

I am a Life long Mac user but I recently Bought my First "Android OS" based device*(the kindle fire)*
The price was right $199, and the form factor is perfect for me as I did not see much advantage in a $500 USD 10 inch ipad that
was not much more portable than my cumbersome 13 inch macbook.
Not planning on any "rooting" or "moding"
By I have"sideloaded" a few Apps from the Official Android market via its USB port
I found a great FREE program for OSX  called "calibre" that will convert almost any document into the various E-reader formats.
Now that I have finally finished my 13 month animation project for my last film client
I have decided to take a long sabbatical and read All of those classic sci fi novels on my convenient tablet.
such as the Dune series By Frank & Brian Herbert as well as the Isaac Asimov "Foundation" series.

yeah I am an old school Sci -fi geek.

Cheers

I agree, the 10 inch is just too big and the 7 inch is perfect ;). And Calibre is the best darn thing since sliced bread!! I'm in it every day, converting something or other so I can read it on the tablet :P. It's awesome :).

Hubby has an iPad and while it's really beautiful and nicer for playing games, the 7 inch is what you want to read on. Perfect in one hand :).
