I don't read library books and I have been able to find all the books I want at Amazon so I have not had a desire to buy a second device.

Most days, I don't need the functionality of an IPad, I actually like having devices that I cannot connect to the internet and play games on since I am very easily distracted. I like my Kindle because it reads books. I have some games on it because they were cheap and who knows, I might want to play them one day. It is light, easy to use, and the battery lasts forever.

A smaller, less expensive tablet is interesting to me but I have not seen anything out there in a price range that I would want.
I hear ya. I buy devices according to needs. I still buy e-ink devices as gifts, for instance. Which device I buy depends on what I think will best suit the user. For a young person, I just bought a wi-fi Kindle, because fewer functions mean fewer temptations for the kid, lol.
