It is time to replace my ancient tablet. It's a 7" Kobo Vox that I've had for over 6 years and still runs Gingerbread. It's showing definite signs of wanting to die, and so I need to get a replacement before it gives up the ghost.
Generally, I use my tablet as an e-reader with an occasional (albeit rare) foray onto the Internet when needed. I keep looking at the Fire tablets but I'm not wild about them coming with Alexa built into the thing and I'm not sure if the tablet can be set to where Alexa can be ripped out by the roots.
I could go with a plain ol' Kindle, but then I doubt I can side load e-books from other sources. Or I could go with a full blown tablet such as a Samsung, but I'd be spending more $$$ on features I'd rarely use.
So, what do you all use? For those of you that have a Fire tablet, how do you like them?
