I like my iPad 1 for reading, especially as the kindle app has revolutionary features like two-column-text.
Initially I loved my Kindle 3 Keyboard, but when I broke that after 3 weeks of use on a holiday trip (imagine the despair: having loaded all those books and not being able to read them) I switched to the iPad and was impressed by how well it went.
Nevertheless, since I have my Kindle Fire I mainly use that as the form factor is more practical. But I do use the iPad, or my iPod touch if I need to and make sure to load new eBooks to all three devices as a provision (e.g. if my kids are using the Kindle Fire for watching videos and the iPad for playing games).
Now, that new iPad 3 with the 2048x1536 display, that looks really tempting for reading!
It'll be time to upgrade the number of iPads in the family soon...
Best regards,
Andy
