How do you read your books? I was thinking getting an iPad so that the resolution is tolerable vs actual books.

  Kindle app for kindle books, everything else is a PDF (generic PDF viewer). I have yet to find a quality ebook tablet that handles PDFs :/

    Sony Digital Paper[1] looks good, but it's $800. [1] http://pro.sony.com/bbsc/ssr/show-digitalpaper/resource.solutions.bbsccms-assets-show-digitalpaper-digitalpaper.shtml?PID=I:digitalpaper:digitalpaper http://pro.sony.com/bbsc/ssr/show-digitalpaper/resource.solu...

    I have a 30K collection of ebooks, 90% PDF's. Use BRISS[1] to crop to optimize them for the screen space on my 1080p Nook HD+ (jailbroken running CM with "PDF Reader" by Lieo Hi-Dev). Everyone's definition of "quality" varies, but this has worked well for me for the past 2-odd years; undoubtedly there are better tablets, but the Nook HD+ struck a cost/benefit sweet spot for me. If my Nook HD+ broke tomorrow I'd probably replace it with a 1080p Lenovo Tab2 A10 tablet for 180USD. [1] http://briss.sourceforge.net/ http://briss.sourceforge.net/

      Thank you so much. I hadn't kept up with tablets and I didn't think a "retina"-like screen was possible to have under $400. I think I'll get that instead of paper books for now.
