    3. Which tablet do you have, Pat? The iPad is very friendly to Kindle for PC, though there are some restrictions. The Nook, of course, is a Barnes & Noble device, and it wants you to buy from them and read Barnes & Noble books. My NookColor is close to but not a full blown Android. I do have the Samsung Galaxy 10 tablet and that is full Android, it does accept applications for most of the eReaders. I haven't tried changing an Android to Win7, most everyone I have read seems to be trying to change TO Android <grin>. I admit I am not all that crazy about the Android OS myself.
