Best Buy Canada is selling the 10HD 10.1 ” Kobo Arc Tablet for only $199.99, which is a half off the original price of $400. The deal is going on until November 20th, but there is a limited number of supplies so stock could (and probably will) run out before the expiration date.
What’s really neat about the Kobo Arc, is that it combines features of both the trusted name brand of Kobo for eReaders and the capabilities of a tablet, so you can use apps for pinning your favourite features from the web. The model is slightly heavier than most eReaders, topping in at about 1.4 pounds, but it’s also the fastest tablet of its size on the market that also boasts a user-friendly interface.
Keep in mind, however, that the Kobo Arc has a backlit screen that is more comparable to a computer’s rather than a traditional eReader, which would instead provide a less harsh glare to ensure long-term reading without the risk of straining your eyes. The Kobo Arc Tablet would be a better investment for someone looking for a combination of the seamless reading qualities of an eReader for short-term reading (e.g. magazines), plus the added features of an Android tablet.
Plus, Best Buy Canada offers free-shipping on orders that exceed $25.
