Kelly, whose comment used to ...Hi Bee, and thanks!<br /><br />Kelly, whose comment used to be here and seems to have disappeared: I haven't used it much for e-books, and I don't have experience with any other e-book readers, so I'm not sure how useful my experience would be to you. I like that it is back-lit rather than e-ink, because I like to read in low light situations, like in bed :) Some people would no doubt prefer e-ink. The low battery life could be a disadvantage for people mainly interested in it as an e-book reader - seems to be about 5-6 hours of solid use.<br /><br />I like the way the e-books look on the page, and installing them seems very easy. It takes just about any format, which is handy.<br /><br />I've seen reviews from comics readers saying it is awesome for comics. I guess the colour screen is the useful thing there!StyleyGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287051608503966129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20717535.post-20846946149987044872010-07-06T15:35:05.414+10:002010-07-06T15:35:05.414+10:00Something made me just click on your blog for old ...Something made me just click on your blog for old times sake....and you're back!

What an eye-opener!<br /><br />I would enjoy reading more about your experiences with it as you get used to it. Are you using it to read any ebooks?Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156061776476400701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20717535.post-59636404114767654672010-07-05T13:22:52.472+10:002010-07-05T13:22:52.472+10:00I bet it was the same people who came up with the ...I bet it was the same people who came up with the iPad, the Wii, and this.StyleyGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287051608503966129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20717535.post-65043730682297188642010-07-04T09:53:01.135+10:002010-07-04T09:53:01.135+10:00Ass heaven...well if we can get used to ipad and w...Ass heaven...well if we can get used to ipad and wii, I guess we can learn not to find that funny either...eventually.... :-D<br /><br />Apart from the name it sounds cute and very handy.Grace Dalleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11184423873725462269noreply@blogger.com
