What's great about it: Free with purchase.
What's not so great: They will be asking for money in a year.
I am not a believer in paying good hard earned money for something that is free with Windows 8. If you don't trust Microsoft to protect your computer for free, there a lot of great free virus protection services available online.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: It's pretty
What's not so great: Too slow and the operating system not ready for prime time.
If this "computer" was faster maybe it wouldn't make chrome os look so bad. Google made a huge mistake putting it on such a slow machine. I think chrome os has potential since its based on Linux. It's just not good on this dog of a machine.
This product is... poor sound quality, A nice compact size, dog of a machine

Apple - iPad® mini with Wi-Fi - 16GB - Silver
iPad mini features a beautiful 7.9" display, iSight® and FaceTime camera, the A5 chip, ultrafast wireless and up to 10 hours of battery life1. And over 275,000 apps2 on the App Store made for iPad work with iPad mini. So it's an iPad in every way, shape and slightly smaller form.
 
Great tablet, you can't go wrong!

What's great about it: It's fast, smooth and has a great app selection.
What's not so great: The apple cover is a little cheap but, it does what it's supposed to do.
I own the iPad 2 and I think it is just great! That's why I purchased the mini, I knew I couldn't go wrong. It's pretty much the same thing as the 2 only smaller. Now, I take it everywhere. The 2 is left on the coffee table, where it is handy for quick info lookups or reading a book.
This product is... responsive touch screen, Good sound quality, easy to set up, lightning fast, Variety of apps available, A nice compact size, Sharp graphics, Easy to navigate, Great screen size, Comfortable to hold, nice looking

REad books

Can it give access to read books on it
Yes, There is a Kindle app. Also anything you can read online you can read on a Chromebook. May I also recommend the "Readability App "(search in web Store) It changes any web page into a readable document that you can also send to the Kindle app to read later.

Would I be able to put photoshop on this laptop?

No, you can not install Programs on a Chromebook. The operating system is just a Chrome Browser. Thats not to say that it doesn't handle pictures well, Because it does (for most people). IF you can get by with a web app to handle photo edits. Most people don't need Photoshop but if you do this is not the machine for you.
