It's the one with the SD Slot. It runs a hybrid of Android.
She has a Kindle Fire, passed along from a friend. She also has an RCA Cambio, which is a Windows machine. The one she's talking about is the Cambio.

As for a Windows 10 tablet you are limited to what apps it can run due to the windows store being limited in itself for quality. I'd stick with the Kindle Fire for reading. PDFs would work better on the Win 10 tablet though.
Who cares about the Windows store? There are at least two programs I know of that should run on the Cambio and display eBooks. One is the older version of FBReader, available for Windows, Linux, and OS/X. The other is the open source SumatraPDF viewer, which displays ePub, Mobi, DjVu, and CBR/CBX (comic book) files as well as PDFs. SumatraDF is Windows only.

But yes, the Fire is an alternative platform she can use for eBooks.
