Hi,
You are right, Kindle is not accessible on Android. Nook is fantastic on
Android and iOS.

Hi shane, happy to bow to superior knowledge but as far as I know kindle app
is not fully accessible on android, there has been some debate recently on

accessible on android!

Hi
Both systems have their strengths and weaknesses but, overall, I
prefer Android. Yes, you can access Kindle titles on Android devices,
provided you've installed the Kindle app.
