Not if what you plan to do is read Kindle books using the Android kindle app.
If you plan on reading books without DRM using, say, Koreader, then yes. Much better.
I see people reading books using apps meant for LCD screens on Onyx devices - Kobo, Kindle, etc - and I would never do that myself. They are clunky and slow and produce a lot of ghosting. I'd rather buy a cheap Kobo and a cheap Kindle and read separately on the two devices.
I remove all DRM and read on Koreader mostly. Sometimes on Alreader X. And for me the experience is better than on Kindle since I can use Android dictionaries for languages unsupported by Amazon/Kobo.
