How well does this work for tablets/e-readers?

It will work just fine! It's completely adjustable and I've placed anything from large textbooks to magazines to a kindle on it.

It's great... There are two clear plastic hold levers that you can adjust to hold. I was using it for my iPad (mostly horizontally) you can also adjust the tilt. And it's very light weight overall.

The tablet has a micro USB port, so if the Square reader has that, then it should work.

It will run ereader apps, but the screen is low resolution and is small. You probably want to get one of the seven inch tablets for ereading.

I know it's probably too late for the person who asked this; but for anyone else with the same question...I think giving any of the Kindle e-readers (not necessarily the kindle fire 'tablets') would be a better idea...they are CHEAPER, and they'll be much more versatile. Not only can you install a Bible on them, they can hold virtually thousands of other books!! I have owned this particular item AND I've had a Kindle touch; the latter was cheaper, lasted longer and was sooooo much more versatile! (I do not have any connection or work with Amazon)

I happen to have a Kindle Fire 8.9" HD tablet. It does have a USB-2 port, but it is a "mini" size port. This reader is for a full size USB port, so I'm thinking it won't work. I don't know of any readers off hand that have a "mini" size plug. That would be cool, if it did work because I'd plug it into my own Kindle.

I have the Archos 7.It's fantastic!It reads Epub, PDF, Kindle etc..... and page changes are FAST.Best of all, it's colour, so it's a fantastic comic reader too.As well as a video player (excellent quality) it goes on the web effortlessly.Kindle? - Sony book reader? - eat your heart out!

Absolutely! I just received mine this weekend. My two ebook readers of choice are Aldiko and the Kindle Android App, both of which work just fine on this tablet. Kindle App will open Mobi files, and if you use their "Send To Device" program (available for both Windows and Mac), it will also add the book to your archives and keep it synced between any other Kindle apps and devices you have. I don't remember if Aldiko supports Mobi files, but I know it supports PDF and Epub. It's my personally favorite ebook reader, because of all the options it has for text color and size, background color, etc. Also it has the option of disabling CSS style sheets, so if the color of the text is coded into the book and won't change when you switch the background to black, or if the book just doesn't look right in Aldiko, you can disable the CSS style sheets and the book usually looks and acts a lot better. The only drawback with Aldiko is no easy way to sync books, bookmarks, and last-page-read between devices.

Thank you G. Hadzima-- Your suggestion is excellent, I think. Yes, the BN reader with Glowlight isn't that expensive and ANY light would be better. It's a shame that I can't move books from my Kindle to the Nook, but that is hardly surprising. Glad you like yours-- many people HAVE liked them and I know you are right: people are far more likely to disparage a product than report that it performed as expected. Yep, if I get one that really underperforms I'm sure I can return it. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I do appreciate it! -PAM

I have never used an ereader for those things. You might be better off with a tablet.

I love it. It's very good for reading, puzzles, etc. I think it works best directly over the reading matter.

I have the Zenithink tablet, but I don't know about which e-reader you are asking. Personally, I'm sorry I ever bought the Zenithink tablet. Unlike an iPad, one cannot upgrade the operating system. Thus, many apps downloaded from the PlayStore are not compatible. It's not a bad tablet, but it mostly sits on my coffee table collecting dust because it's a "klunker." Wish I had an iPad or even the new Windows tablet. I can suggest getting on the Android Forum where better tech minds may be able to offer help. If I could, I would send it back for a refund. BTW ... the battery life sucks. Good luck.

I use Aldiko to download and read my library books. I think it is a better reader than the Nook or Kindle readers. You don't really need Overdrive.

To 5 yorkies and H. Bowman: This should work just fine for the both of you. I've had this a few days, but today was the first time I've really had time to play with it. Its taken all day to get to get an eReader that will work good. This unit comes with Aldiko as the eReader app, but I couldn't figure out how to buy/download books (it comes with downloads to tons of free books, but thats not what I was looking for). Someone else on this site gave a web address to download Kindle for Android and now I have it downloaded (even started reading the book I was looking for). I was able to setup my email right away, although it didn't work very well through the setup wizard (I have yahoo mail). Since I already have an android phone, I checked the settings on my phone and just did a manual setup using the same settings. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I will do what I can do help. Good luck to you...I'm loving my new tablet so far.

It is very nice for reading, which is the my main use for this tablet, but for heavy work I have a Surface Pro 3.I used to own a Surface RT and Surface 2. Comparing with those for reading is more suitable and you can run legacy apps.

You may receive different opinions about this tablet. My experience with this device has been very positive. I saved money and have been able to use the device without troubles. I have even dropped the tablet multiple times until I finally bought a case to keep it in. I primarily use my tablet as a Bible to quickly find chapters and versus much faster than most people can look them up in the Bible itself. Enjoy ...

I use it for my paperwhite and it works great. I've had it about 6 months and use it several times a week and have had no issues.

I have used it with most Android devices and it works. Haven't used it with Kindle.
