Wifey is getting a Nexus 7 (32gb) - eReader?
My wifey is buying a Nexus7 (32gb) and she wishes to use it as an eReader as well as a tablet.
I have seen that there is a Kindle app for Nexus 7 however I am unsure how to move and a put books on it. I was hoping that I could use Calibre but I am unsure. The Nexus 7 as yet hasn't arrived but I like to have the information gathered a ready before I pick it up . |

When you install the kindle app it makes a folder on the sd called kindle so Just place the actual mobi files in the root of the kindle folder.. Not a folder in the folder.. It may take a min for the app to update but that works |

The only thing that destroys the reading experience on android tablets is the outdoor reading under bright sunlight :-)
Add to that, indoor reading for long periods on an LCD screen hurt your eyes. |
