Comic Readers.

Martin Walker

Hey everyone.
Im looking to pick up some sort of tablet or ebook reader that can read colour comics on. Nothing Flash.
I have lots on my Laptop but in the next few months im planning on doing a bit of travelling so i dont want to cart me laptop around. I use my Android fone from time to time but its quite small.
So has anyone any ideas of something i could look into?
Thanks

I'm using "Picture Viewer" on my android tablet and it's fantastic. Once you get used to the controls it's very intuitive.

Im looking for advice on what type of Tablet is good for viewing comics.

I shopped around for a tablet for the same purpose, went with a Sony tablet S in the end. The "folded over magazine" design makes it much easier to hold in one hand whilst reading.

Been using it for last 3 months and have read about 200 comics on it easily. When used for browsing and reading I've gotten about 3 days from a single battery charge.

I've used Droid Comic Viewer in the past as it has good support for a variety of formats. It should work on pretty much any Android device.

Thanks guys but as i said in my previous post im looking for advice on a device. Not an app. I have a comic book reader on my Phone that works fine my problem is the screen is too small. So im looking a new device. Thats all.

As for devices, It looks like KIndle fire is going to be good
