From what I've read and watched, the Android roots on the Kobo seemed more glitchy and unstable than everything I saw about the Nooks. I'm not a fan of eReaders that have to be used with a stylus, but then again I've never even owned my own eReader. I looked at Onyx Boox and some other others that come running android, but the price is the only deferent with those. They're product line is vast though, and my research was limited, so if one of their lower end models fits my needs I'd be interested in exploring then!
While I planned to run Opera with the page reload tweak for smoother scrolling, browsing wouldn't be the main function. I guess my title is a little misleading referring to it as a tablet. I don't own a tablet, so the ability to use it as such would be nice.
To clarify, I am still looking for a mobile reading solution outside of my iPhone. I work with lots of PDFs for school, and have researched ways to optimize them and/or convert them over to EPUB or the likes with Calibre and other tools. I also have a library of reference material and books as PDFs (that I also would convert) I'd like to be able to carry with me. So reader app or two(I'd like to start buying reference material as ebooks in the future) , an RSS wrangler (RSSRob?), and read it later functionality (Instafetch?) are what I'm really after. The ability to download apps to control CPU usage and what not is also appealing with the android root
