Boox Nova Air C. Color e-reader. I've never had an e-reader before. The refresh is slow, the colors are like a faded cheap newspaper, and it's not as sharp as a b&w kindle. But I love it. It runs a heavily modified version of Android, and can load anything from the play store, but mainly it's just so much better to read on than my former tablet because you aren't really tempted use it for much else, other than maybe some article browsing. As it's a Chinese-made OS and device I don't use it to connect to any services that require an important password. But I have to say, the interface gets better with every update... it's very clever and full of tricks and shortcuts once you get to know it. The best part is the wacom pen and note taking which really feels like a marker on paper, as opposed to writing on glass. I write short fiction in my spare time and have started taking it out and writing longhand on it as opposed to typing on a laptop. Little pricey for an e-reader but it's definitely my favorite purchase of the past year.
