Straw poll (e-readers/tablets)

Tray1980, 4 March, 2014 at 20:28 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 47

I'm trying to prove a point to my brother who says that we're the only people who have kindles/tablets.

What do you have?

    I am trying to resist buying a Kindle because I love books although I can see I will eventually cave in as I travel a fair bit and a kindle seems much more practical.

    We have an Ipad and a samsung tablet. (Both Hubbys)

    I am happy with my iphone and laptop,

    I've got a kindle that I used for two weeks on holiday two years ago, probably won't use it again until honeymoon in November!

    I'd like an iPad and would have one if I had the spare cash! It's first on shopping list after the wedding!

    I don't have a kindle or a tablet. I would like a kindle but I don't read enough to justify it!

    I have an iPad Mini and a touchy-screen Kindle. Boy has an iPad Air.

    Some will remember that I resisted a Kindle for ages, until receiving one as a Christmas present. It's good for all the *** stuff you don't want in your shelves. And porn.

    I have the older kindle and I love it so much. I was really against them and now I wouldn't be without it. My mum has the first one and she uses it a lot, my brother had a touch screen I think but I don't like that so much.

    Tablet wise - I have a first generation iPad as a hand me down from my little brother. Basic but I don't need any more. H (my mum and my brother too!) has an iPad mini and loves it.

    I'm behind the times - I don't have either. I was considering getting a Kobo though (cheap version of Kindle) but not sure I'd use it a lot.

    I have 1 of the old first gen Kindle's and recently got a Paperwhite. OH has got a normal Kindle, and a Fire, but he wants an upgrade to a Paperwhite after seeing mine. We do love our Kindle's.

    We'd both take a good 2/3 books each on holidays normally now we just take the Kindles. I was a huge paper book fan, and didn't think I'd like it at first.

    I'd quite like an iPad too.

    I have a kindle. I got it for xmas just over 2 years ago and I flippin love it. I was always an avid reader anyway, but since getting it I read even more. It's especially great for taking on holiday as it doesn't weigh my suitcase down!

    I have both - a Kindle Touch and a Google Nexus 7 tablet. I considered getting rid of my Kindle when I got the tablet, but decided to keep the Kindle for carrying around to work and suchlike, and just keep my tablet at home - it cost a lot more money, and I'm notorious for being clumsy. If I carried my tablet in my work bag it would probably be covered in yogurt or something by now.

    I have a kindle and a tablet, I use them both daily. Would hate to be without them now, especially the tablet.

    Tablets/iPads are far from rare these days. Smart phones which give similar functionality are also common place as are lap tops. I'd suggest what's becoming the rarity is the standard desk top computer. Me and OH between us have my iPad, two laptops, his iPhone 5 and my Samsung S4 and I don't think we're unusual at all.

    We don't have either, we have some tablet thing that is utter rubbish, H's mum insisted on getting it for H for when he works away it was a qvc jobby, only thing we use it for is to link it up to the tv for net flix.

    I have no desire to own a Kindle or an ipad, I'm happy with the good old fashioned book and we use our phones for internet access.

    What you have to remeber is to change the book to something clean after reading porn so that if you were to die in a horrific accident you wouldn't be know as 'that girl who was reading a bonk fest before she carked it'

    I have a kindle, was a pressie for our paper anniversary. We also have a vintage iPad between us, it barley works now which has out me off getting another tbh. It's dated so quickly.
