My Nook HD has stood up to lots of travel. Used for PDF tech documents,
movies while on long
flights, and reading all of the Walking Dead comics. :)
With the flip-back cover, it is VERY durable.  >>> Excellent all-around
purchase.
My only gripe: Buy 2 chargers, as it uses it's own connection, not the
standard micro USB.

I also have a Galaxy Tab 3 7" .. and the size is too small for the above
uses. Currently,
it is being used as an all-in-one remote for the living room gear; and a
quick web surf
tool.
