One of my co-workers told me that he prefers reading ebooks on his iPhone 4 to his iPad - we side-by-side compared them, and the iPhone screen density makes a huge difference.
That said, the form-factor is a little awkward for longform reading.
- CamperBob 16y agoThis is a key point: the iPad's display is only going to get better over time, while e-Ink displays are probably not going to improve much from here. They might get faster, but what else is likely to change? I can't imagine investing in a company that spends time optimizing an e-Ink display. It would be like building a better vacuum tube. When the iPad gets the so-called 'retina display' from the iPhone 4 model, it's all over.
- listic 16y agoThat's what I'm afraid of. I wish they would make better e-Ink displays. And I wish they would make better vacuum tubes too.
