I am not sure if the Coby is going to run it as well.

Anyway, you definitely will have your Coby 2 weeks before I get my Kindle Fire. Plus, if you like epub ebooks better than Kindle ebooks, then definitely the Coby is better. I only read Amazon Kindle eBooks and my wife uses a Sony PRS 500 to only read Sony eBooks.
My Gateway is a Quad core and I agree it does multitasking better. I can't say for gaming. This PC is crap when I try to play a game on it but it handles everything else fairly well.

My Coby should be here Thursday. I use both formats but the Kindle app for android I do not like it. I use my Kindle for Kindle books. I am getting my tablet to read in bed at night as of right now I am using my phone to read on. It's a 3.2" screen.

I'm not interested in Silk. I prefer Opera Mini for Android.
