Had to reset my home screen for some stupid reason so I thought it's a nice chance to change things up.

Still have to change the icons to use one of the icon packs I have.

Try MX Player. It is not a beta... and I think it works better right now than the VLC. More optimized at least.

Also depends what size they're looking for. Found that my iPad wasn't the most practical for sitting around between classes and browsing (its kind of tough to type with 2 hands holding it in portrait). So downgraded to a Nexus 7.

How is the nexus 7 for textbooks though? I use my ipad for textbooks as well as for doing some math assignments which are online and worried the nexus 7 would be a little too small

32GB. Good for movies. Me and le gf watched a couple movies on the Nexus I downloaded in blueray rips. Crisp clean screen. Good size for 2 cuddled together .

Also had a look at the books in the play store, good backlight and text quality.
