Hmmmm....

I can get a 32GB Google Nexus for £180 where I work, which is only 3x more.
(But then I can use android apps, and music, and films, and that)

So it comes down to Battery Life Vs. Functionality.

EDIT: You know what. I think I can afford to get the Nexus. I mean, I get paid next friday, and I havent spent much of this months pay, so I might just go for it. (And then just install the Kindle app or something..)

I'll make it even easier for you. Do you want an e-reader or do you want a tablet? That really is the only question to answer.

Yeah. I'm getting the tablet! XD
(Tomorrow though, I just sorted my clubcard account out today. Turns out all this time I couldn't access it online because the idiot that set it up didn't put a first name on the system. (just a letter! XD))

Should be sorted by tomorrow though, and hopefully I might have a voucher or two to use to make it even cheaper!

I can't just watch one episode of Farscape, no no no, I watch seven and still have to force myself not to watch an eighth as it's 3 am and I'm tired.

It's still tempting now.

I'm taking a wild stab in the dark here. But I think its a Nexus.
EDIT: (A Nexus 10? It seems similar in shape)
(Also I think the Nexus 10 is made by Samsung, whereas the 7 is made by ASUS)

Fact: Stabbing wildly in the dark isn't a good strategy during a sword fight, as you'll make too much noise. The best is to lay low, wait until the other tries to take a stab at you and follow its noise instead.

I guess I could do that.
....Or maybe, I dunno... put these night vision goggles on and take this sniper rifle and shoot them or something...

Bad idea in my opinion. The recoil could ram the scope right into the goggles.

I wish my Nexus tablet had an app ecosystem that provided better tablet apps. I also wish that Comixology wouldn't keep reserving their "Retina Display"-quality comics to the iPad when the Nexus 10 display goes toe-to-toe with the new iPad screen. I wish I'd stop seeing web content designed for iPads that doesn't work on the Nexus 10 due to some arbitrary distinction in how the iPad and the Nexus 10 render web content.

And I wish that the interface on the Nexus 10 better acknowledged that it was a massive block in my hands and that porting over the phone interface with minimal changes is a bad idea, and I wish I didn't have to go through arcane hacks and modifications just to do the reasonable thing that they got right at the start and move the navigation buttons to one side rather than placing them at the center which NO HUMAN FINGER is equipped to reach with any level of comfort when your tablet is the size of the Nexus 10.

Heh. I thought it was a nexus, since you related it to that discussion, but then i realised it was a different shape and size, so I thought it may have been the 10 model, and I then googled a picture, and saw it matched so I took a gamble on it. :P

The Walking Dead is a pretty good game.
