Comic Book Reader Recommendations?
Just hoping I can borrow your brains! My sister loves reading comics and I was thinking about getting her a device of some kind which would let her store and read e-comics on the go. Problem is, I'm not really sure what's out there!
She's very happy with her laptop and not that interested in a tablet, so I don't want to get something mega expensive like an Ipad and pay for all the extra bells and whistles.
From my research I think I'm looking for something:
With colour
A large screen size - Most comics are formatted at approaching A4 size and constantly having to zoom and scroll to read the dialogue would become annoying quickly and might stop you wanting to use it.
A fair sized memory - comics eat up space quickly. I think the ideal set up would be a device with an expandable SD card slot so she could load up her different collections and then swap them in and out as she wished. But that would be an ideal luxury add on.
Powerful enough that the pages load quickly and keep the reading experience smooth.
A comic reader app and a way to get the files on to it easily.
Does anyone use a device for reading comics that they'd recommend? Or know of something that might be good for this purpose that I could research more?
Thank you!

The iPad (1 or 2) screen (thank you disability tech grant) is perfect, and there are several apps that side-load comics very well.
