Hi all,
I have a Nexus 10, which works wonderfully. I am also somewhat invested in the Google Apps eco-system.
However, I find that reading books - particularly PDFs - are a bit of a problem primarily because of the screen orientation. The other thing is that I usually have a longish commute everyday during which time I am standing most of the time. Pulling out the N10 and holding it for long periods of time is not a very comfortable experience.
I thought about the new Nexus 7, but while much lighter, the aspect ration part of things would be the same and I think - though I have not tested it - the text size would become too small for comfort (I do have weak eyes).
Could you recommend the best 8' tab with aspect ratio of 4:3 available? My key requirements are (1) the aspect ratio for reading purposes (2) weight (3) relatively good battery life (say 6-8 hrs of constant e-reading).
This would be my dedicated e-text reader while my Nexus 10 would do all the media and web-browsing work.
Thanks in advance!
