Best Reader/Tablet for me? Summaries top priority!!
Hello! I currently own a Nook Simple Touch and I'm on the hunt for a new e-reader. I am VERY frustrated with my inability to properly organize my files on the Simple Touch. I could really use some advice on a new device to invest in. Some things that are important to me:
1.) I think I'd like a multi-functional tablet instead of 'just' an ereader. Something that can go online, run apps, etc.
2.) Price is not a concern right now
3.) Memory space is important. I'd like to put music on the device as well, and I don't want to have to fuss with taking things on and off the device because of limited memory. Putting music on is not a top priority, however.
4.) The single most important thing is that I need to be able to input AND view my own summaries and metadata for the documents. Many of my files are either things I've written or, frankly, fanfiction. I also like to put in my own summaries and metadata for published books. As an example, my Nook does not allow me to view summary info- I can only view title/author or information limited by file name length. With fanfiction, titles and author are meaningless to me. From what research I've done, the Kindle only allows you to download summaries from Goodreads or Amazon, which again is not helpful. I don't know if you can view metadata AND open a book directly in calibre companion, so that might be a solution. Without the ability to input and view summary info, I can't find anything on the device and it gets very frustrating very quickly.
5.) Since I have so many files of my own and fanfiction, I obviously need the ability to side load documents.
6.) I'd like to be able to read comics (cbr files) and magazines.
7.) I don't really have a preference as far as OS goes.
Any suggestions would be very helpful! I'm very excited that right now I have a chance to spend a little on myself and get something that will last a good while, so I want to make sure I get something that will make me happy!
