PRS-T1 vs Tablet

I first had my eyes set on a Galaxy S1 but the carrier I wantedto go with doesn't have them anymore...

So I'm in the market for a possible upgrade for my K3.

I have narrowed it down to a PRS-T1 and the Lenovo A1 tablet. Both of them are within my budget and readily purchasable from Canada.

What I need my device to do is:
- Read ebooks. Format is irrelevant, TXT support, however is needed.
- Read manga without too much hassle. (I should note that I don't usually zoom when I read manga on my K3)

What I would like:
- Being able to check my emails
- Do some light web browsing

What I don't like about my K3:
- Reading manga with the stock OS is a nightmare
- Duokan doesn't always respond to the forward and back buttons when I read
- The Kindle takes forever to index...

What I'll miss from the K3:
- Free 3G

I was told that the T1 would be a better choice due to the following:
- Better battery life
- Easier on the eyes
- Can run Android apps
- Slightly cheaper

But then again the A1:
- has a color screen
- would be run smoother altogether
- has a higher resolution
- has an integrated GPS
- has access to Android Market (Google Play)

Edit: I forgot to mention that I'm fairly tech-savvy just in case that is relevant to the equation.
