Currently use a small Kindle for books that are all text. For books with pics or where I need to zoom/move around the page, the Kindle is next to useless. So I'm looking for a very inexpensive (less than $80) (used or new) 9-10" Android tablet to serve pretty much exclusively as a reader for books that aren't easy to read on my Kindle.

I'm guessing new is out at my budget, so if you have a used Android tablet that you find works well as a reader, please let me know the model. I suppose the only spec that is really important for reading is a sufficiently high resolution (high enough that you don't see pixels or have to scroll the screen for each next paragraph). Not looking to web browse or play games, just read.
