Coby Tablet - Is it a Good Purchase?

This is great feedback. Graphics quality is important since the tablet will be used as a e-reader.

My friend was enticed with the price of the Coby kasi It would be great if you could recommend a tablet that is good for EBooks. Preferably 10 in since my friend is not sure if it's comfortable to read Ebooks with a 7 inch screen. Maximum budget is 8k.

Depends on your definition of comfort. 10inch tablets are heavy. Try holding one while reading a e-book or viewing a movie.

7 or 8 inch screens on tablets are fine since you can double tap zoom on the book/document so the text will be bigger & easier to read. I read e-magazines on my laptop before and now I do the same on my nexus 7 tablet (with 7 inch screen). With my laptop, I dont need to zoom since my screen is big (13.3 inch) but I have to rotate the display to read it in "book" format. With my tablet, I need to double tab areas of text I want to read. Other than that, it's ok.
