Great Tablet at a Bargain Price
I'm a fan of this tablet and I've tried a goodly number. I own 3 and I've gifted 2 more. It nicely fills the spot between a 10" tablet that I find too big and a 7" tablet that is just a little too small. Battery life is excellent, often living in my laptop bag for months and still holding a charge. In use I get 2-3 days of heavy use on a charge. Memory is 8GB minimum (internal) with a standard micoSD slot that can take up to another 64GB of memory. That's a LOT of books, games, and apps. I use mine mostly for reading and an occasional movie while traveling. I can fit 6-10 movies and 2500 books in memory and still have room to spare. Screen is excellent, even by today's standards, which is something considering it has been discontinued for several years now.
The one criticism it deserves is the clunky Barns and Noble desktop interface. It was designed to promote their store and services and function mostly as an electronic book. Fortunately it is 100% Android under the hood and by loading the excellent ADW Launcher (free) the desktop experience is the same as on the latest smart phones. I find this the ultimate in convenience as I simply put this on my phone and tablets and they all function exactly identically! No learning different moves for different devices.
In summary, a tough, beautiful and well constructed full function tablet that can currently be had at a BARGAIN price on the used market.
