I kept my Kindle Fire about 7 days. It's on its way back to Amazon. Having said that, it would have probably made an excellent e-reader. The color display was bright and sharp.
My complaints were with other aspects of the Fire. it repeatedly dropped the WiFi connection, even when I was 5' from the router. It would not reacquire the connection, requiring me to manually re-connect. Also, my semi-fat fingers were not compatible with the virtual keypad. The email app was easy to set up and worked well, but emails were displayed in a tiny unreadable font, with no way to increase the font size or to zoom the display, as the browser does.
....I looked, read, touched, pondered, procrastinated-- then got the iPad. I am extremely happy. Keep it simple, you get what you pay for.
