A point not much discussed in the essay is that of technical books. In this area, physical books are somehow better.
Has anyone had any success with big e-ink devices? I'd love to switch, but they are a bit expensive, slow and lack good format support.
Moving around the world with tons of books is sadly very inconvenient.
- zzalpha 12y agoYeah, right now it seems tablets are the "best" option, but I actually think, for technical materials, where you're jumping around, marking pages, etc, more frequently, physical paper is still superior. Well, save for the fact that technical books are rarely coil bound. At least a digital book stays open when I set it down on my damn desk!
