Reader with google play books

I just bough the inkbook prime, which runs android and I (maybe foolish) thought it had google play store installed too. As I would very much like to use google play book as my reader-app. Then I can use both my phone and ebookreader to read with and keep sync on where i am. Plus google play books is where I have my books stored also.

Which device would have google play store and possible to install google play books on?

Hope someone can help

Thanks

The Icarus Illumina has Google Play.

I *think* the Inkbook Obsidian does as well. A review on Amazon mentions they installed Google Books on it.

In a similar position

Also just bought the Inkbook Prime to discover i can't run Google Play. I've managed to side-load the google play app as well as Drive and Docs, but they won't run without a google account on the device, which seems to be impossible to add.

I've been looking into the Kepler Pro (I really want bluetooth) -- this German site claims that it has Google Play pre-installed. Can anyone confirm that?
