The Gadgeteer

“I like the Next6 hardware quite a bit. Sometimes it actually feels a little snappier to me than the Nook Color and I found the multi-touch capacitive display to feel more responsive than the Nook as well. The things that bother me about this player are the buggy reader and market apps and the fact that it can’t be upgraded to newer versions of the OS. For these reasons, I’m torn as to whether I can really recommend the Next6.”

The eBook Reader

“It's still using the same software and mostly the same hardware last year's NextBooks used, so its functionality is limited. A lot of games aren't going to work, the screen resolution could be better, and adding apps can be tricky with no Android Market access and the Amazon appstore doesn't work. For an extra $50 - $75 you can find an ereader/tablet with better specs and Android 2.2 so it all depends on how much you're willing to spend.”
