I never thought I would switch to a tablet for reading as I own four eInk Kindles but the new tablets out just surpass eINK. One it seems to be easier on my eyes. The black text is just that black and I can choose my background to read on. I can choose how bright or dark I want the screen and the text never washes out like it does with a frontlit reader.

I just love reading on a tablet and now they are light as a eReader it's makes it even more nicer experience.

The text rendering is probably the biggest factor for me. I am just in awe of the Nexus 7's text rendering. You can see any pixel it's smooth and clear and crisp. Nothing I have seen on PC/device comes close to it.

I've attached the N7 and KFHD2 as you can see they are very nice to read on. However my camera makes the text more bold on the KFHD2. I'm not sure why.
