137- Velocity Micro's R101 Reader


Well for $84 how can you go too wrong? I just ordered this book reader/android tablet- not from Amazon but Woot (on sale for $79 + $5 shipping). Woot offers a new deal (but for one day only) every day.

I know this reader is a little old and out of date. It runs Android 2.0 and can't be upgraded. But it will run the Kindle app and also allow you to "borrow" e-books from your public library. To me this makes it better than the Kindle, which I own. My version of the Kindle doesn't allow me any books but Kindle books and PDFs. It cost more than the newer version that they now sell and are not being software supported like the newer versions... which sort of sucks.

Anyway. I'll be giving it a try.
