I'm a "tech fan" in the manner of "art fan". You can like more than one artist. You might like this artist and not that. But unlike a "sports fan", you don't have to like your team and hate all others.

I completely agree that expandable storage is a nice feature, and that having to go outside of the book app to order is a pain. I will point out, though, that it is impossible to buy Apple books from a Kindle Tablet....or Amazon books from a Kobo.

Price is the biggest gate. I buy Amazon Kindle Fire tablets as gifts. I've bought no less than 10 for family and friends over the years. I'd never do that with iPads as they are considerably more money.
