I do some reading on a lenovo convertible tablet, but it is really too heavy to hold in my hands. It is big enough for journal pdfs, but if the chart does not fit, too bad, scrolling is no substitute for unfolding.
I do most reading on my phone. My daughter is starting to carry books on her phone, too, in preference to her kindle. Fine for text, but really need the quad HD projector for the graphics. -- rec -- On Feb 8, 2013 5:00 PM, "Gary Schiltz" <g...@naturesvisualarts.com> wrote: > To me, it's debatable whether switching from hardcopy books to ebooks is a > net environmental plus.
