One of the Kindle Fire tablets would probably be the most cost effective for what you're asking.

I currently use a Fire 8. Kind of clunky, and Wi-Fi is unstable. Had to hack it to put Google play

I am a big android guy but when it comes to tablets I would go with an ipad.

I’m not blaming a single person here for using a tablet. Just saying it’s maybe not something to brag about.

I'm Not bragging even a little bit. I am just amazed at how much more

Huh? This is a weird take.

So this is how it’s going to go down. Can’t say LDS vs. eLDS, but something similar.
