Why waste money by paying for features I don't need?
I would pay extra for a product that looks much better, has better build quality, better hardware (screen, processor, software, memory), and better features --- if that's what I want. (I want neither the iPad nor the TAB, just for your info). You never know when those additional features come in handy. And if it is just for reading, well, then I am fine with the devices I have now for the moment.

To each his own -- I am not that frugal if I really like something. If you are the "my car gets me from A to B" type of guy, that is fine, of course. I just feel differently about it. I would rather buy nothing that buy something just because it is cheap.
