I'd go with a tablet. I do some reading on my Acer netbook, but when I read I tend to sit for extended periods. I shift around in the chair, shift the device in my hands, etc., all to get comfortable. Doing that with even a small netbook was awkward. Before I had a tablet, it was okay, but since I got the tablet I almost never read PDFs on my netbook, It's just a lot easier with a tablet.
