Tablet/"E-reader" Advice, please...

The Nook can run regular Android. You can just run it over WiFi.

The Nook, when rooted, can also run Kindle from Android Market, as well as the B&N eBooks.

If you want an e-Reader, get the Nook. The Kindle Fire is not as hackable, and they are getting rid of 3G.

If you still have to use Windows, get LogMeIn or a Remote Desktop client from Android Market and run that to get your texts on there. It's a hack, but it works.
