Genuine question: Why an e-reader and not just use your phone?
- remexre 5y agoFor me at least, screen size! You really want to be able to fit any diagram on the whole screen at once.
- Helithumper 5y agoAnother similar question, Why not any tablet (IPad, Android, etc...)? I've found trying to quickly browse information on an eReader to be an exercise in patience. Genuinely wondering how this is working out for you and if you have any pictures of this setup that would be interesting.
- remexre 5y agoMy eReader is the only tablet I own; the big plus of it for me is that it gets about a week of battery per charge, so I don't have an extra device to remember to charge every night, put back in my backpack, etc. Don't really have a setup worth taking pictures of, it's just a Remarkable 2 with KOReader.
