Adding to mgmueller's comments on Playbook:

BookReader is getting very good. Supports a ton of formats now.
And its just a dollar i think. The Dev also responds well.

Apart from this, there's PlayEpub, kobo etc.,
Not a great many count-wise, but how many is required to read?

Other reasons:
1. Pretty good selection of Games. This tablet is powerful. So lots of Games from EA etc., Pretty good price too; also BB sometimes pushes out freebies of some major games.
2. Awesome Sound and video. can play lot of formats by default.

Personally i wont let this tablet go; also waiting for the awesome BB10!
At its price, its a good buy for the rainy day. Using the Qnx OS alone is eye-opening.

Reasons not to get it:
its quite heavy. More heavier/beefier than Kindle fire.
