Use your kindle to read Oceanbooks titles

They operate a variant of Android as their operating system. Despite being restricted to being an e-reader, they are very popular.

Kindles have a much longer battery life because they do not need to display the sharp colourful graphics that tablets do. This can be advantageous on long flights for example.

Having said all the above, there are at least five kindle models available, and the latest one does have colourful graphics. It's battery might not last as long though, unless it is moving to 9 cell.
