Can you recommend a reading Lamp and an SD card for it? How fast does the Read Rate of the SD Card need to be?
I'm very pleased with my M96.

To me it feels okay, a fairly solid construction, and it is fairly light.

It isn't perfect - one issue is the screen is not flush, so it is very thin where the screen is, which I dislike, I'd prefer a flush device. Also, the base is thicker than the top and sides, so it isn't a uniform design, this again, I dislike.

My only other gripe is the charger - it's mini instead of micro USB, so I have to carry around both the mini and micro leads when I take my phone and the M96 out for a while.

I've not installed an SD card yet, I've yet to see a need for it (I don't have much installed).

I have no need for a night light - sorry, I can't help you there!

My purpose for mine is that it is far easier to read in daylight and doesn't reflect overhead lights as opposed to my Nexus 10, so I prepare any sermons on my Nexus 10, and then can preach from my M96 without a glaring screen shining up at me (all the docs goes through Dropbox, so no need to worry about storage space).

Hmmm, if it was lacking anything, I'd say it was a microphone to go with the speaker (I haven't actually tried the speaker since I found there wasn't a microphone)

I hope this helps!
