For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I wanted to see what the cheapest 10" tablet on Amazon was.

I guess it's the one subsidized by North Korea?

Love it! But seriously, I use a crappy $25 Amazon tablet for reading epubs. Great for that alone, sucks for anything else, even simple browsing.

I don't actually want one, I was just curious due to a conversation I was having. I just bought an eReader as a Christmas present for myself for that purpose. Significantly more than $39, but also probably not a total piece of trash.

I just care about reading, but the colour version was like $10 more than the non-colour version, so I thought what the hell.

I have a last-gen Clara HD. Love it. I copied the internal SD to 32gb, so instantly expanded storage.
Calibre web on desktop, use the built-in browser to pull my books. All good.
If you like to tinker, there's KOReader and such too.

KOReader looks interesting. I've been reading about it. Good to hear about the Clara, thanks!
