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.

Dear Xavi,Thank you for your reply. Since my last message I have purchased the Kindle 3 as I was concerned about the difficulty of buying and downloading books within the UK. I am so far very happy with the Kindle although I am very interested in what you think of the Nook. I have relatives in the US who are considering buying an e-reader and so I would love to know what your opinion is. If you get the chance to give me some feedback once you've used it that would be great!Thank you.Sincerely,Michelle

I think there is a problem with the Google system on this tablet. (Google caused it by drastically changing the system after the Cruz was released). The Kindle Fire is a much better product. Send this one back and get a Kindle. (And no, I don't work for Amazon or Kindle...just a better product, IMO). Good luck!

Yes. I agree with Augusto Rufasto. You can't not download from Google Play but you can download unofficially. Doing this procedure:http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/coby-generation-3-development/56419-how-root-gapps-coby-kyros-mid4331-4-a.html. However today my coby is a little bit slow. To me worked because some app I like just have in google play. Another thing you may pay attention is that many apps didn't work this tablet because It didn't have GPS so even with google play installed you can't download it.

yes - but you need to download the Android version of the Kindle app. I have many Kindle books on my Asus tablet

My tablet is 8.4. Amazon puts all versions together. But it is designed for a specific model, just buy the one for your model.

I purchased this tablet over 3 years ago. One of the original apps which came with the tablet is a book reading app and several books. Also, I downloaded the Kindle app from Amazon, and have purchased several dozen books and magazines from the Kindle store. Check your apps to see if Kindle is present. If not, go to Kindle store and download. The app also works on desktop and laptop PCs.

Yes, GetJar is the way to get apps right now, I believe. As tablets have evolved, the way to download apps has changed. The Coby Kyros is limited compared to some other tablets, and that means the app place has changed and may change again to make sure that this device will still be able to get apps. My kids use this tablet to play various games, so I know that it still has use. Sometimes our wifi connections kicks this tablet offline for no reason, and I am told it is because of the way in which this tablet gets online. If you find it keeps getting kicked offline, restart the device and just be patient with it. Yes, GetJar is the way to get apps right now, I believe.

I'm not sure but I doubt it. Mine was so cheap I couldn't even access Google Play. My best advice would be if they didn't send a book that answers your question try the coby site and see if you can pull up a book or chat with someone.

I installed it on my phone, so I have no experience with a tablet. However, I have never had a problem downloading anything from Amazon, so I would probably go that route.

Don't know, but highly advise to stay away from these tablets. Their cheap cost is attactive, but I bought two, one for each of my boys and w/i 3 months both were garbage due to plug in receiving pin coming loose of the main board inside andinternal battery coming loose. Go with a kindle or older model Ipad. It may be more cost for those, but I don't even believe you get what you pay for with these coby tablets.

You can download the "FBReader" from Amazon app store. This is my favorite program for reading free eBooks (mostly classics). It allows you to configure where the eBook library is stored on your tablet's internal memory or external microSDHC card. On the other hand, the screen resolution of this 4.3" tablet is too low at 480x272, so you can only view a small region of a normal book page. If you expect to do a lot of reading, get a 7" or larger tablet instead.

I took off the OS(icecream i thinnk) that was installed and put on another one that allowed me to access the playstore. Turns out some of the apps at the playstore aren't compatiable with this version of the Kyros. For the most part I'm happy with it. But it kinda sucks when you go get an app and you get the message that it's not compatiable with the tablet you have.
