I think I have preferred reading on the xoom lately because of the backlit screen at night time, (which is when I usually read because I have to look after my kids during the day lol), and because of the different formats available.
It's great I can access kindle books. There have been so many books I haven't been able to get from Kindle because I have a Kobo Touch and in saying that I'm not interested in ever owning a Kindle.
I like my Kobo Touch but I find the eink hard to read at night time even with a little light that clips on to the Kobo.
Yes the xoom is obviously heavier than the the kobo but I just keep going back to reading my books on it. I have my kobo sitting my desk draw and I don't really want to read off it any more.
I should probably go back to my kobo because it's lighter and better for my eyes in the long run. Even though I haven't gotten a headache from reading off the xoom yet. I do have bad eyesight and reading off the backlit screen seems to be a little bit easier on my eyes and I don't have to squint so much.
