An ebook reader. Advice ? (iPad, Galaxy, Kindle, B&Noble's reader ???)
- wwortiz 16y agoIf you read books buy a Kindle or a Nook (Kindle is great especially when you are buying books, but nook gets wonderful reviews as well and supports quite a bit more). If you are going to be reading pdfs an Ipad is the way to go.
- joelhooks 16y agoI absolutely love my Kindle. Here's a word of warning though, if you like to read books that have code listings you will need the DX. They just don't work on the 6" screen.
- zdw 16y agoReading linear books (novels, etc.), get an e-ink reader like the Kindle, etc. You won't mind the page delay if it's one page at a time. Reading tech books (manuals, reference material, etc.) get an iPad or subnotebook. Much faster to flip rapidly through as there's a much smaller page load delay, better search etc. I'm so thankful for ebooks - there's a line in one of the perl docs that says "You can't grep dead trees", which has always been my beef with paper docs.
