I am hoping that my new readers will have some suggestions for me regarding my dilema. What dilema, you ask? Well, I'm a self-published author so that means I do a lot of my own book sales. I do not own a smartphone - just the basic model (calls/texts/pictures).

With so many people using debit/credit cards I'm trying to decide what device to purchase. I know that once I get the device I will need to get the little card-reader. I also know that the little card-reader fits onto an iphone/smartphone, the Kindle Fire and iPad/tablets.

I would love to have a device that will serve multiple purposes. I want to be able to read eBooks, use email, take card payments and send/receive texts and access different apps.

Do any of you have something that does all this? What advise would you like to offer?
