Hi, there. I am a new PhD student and need to read a lot of papers. So I want to buy a tablet for the job. Typically, a paper is in A4 PDF. And I need tools like annotation (better with mathematical formula input). Someone recommends the new iPad for me because of the retina display. On the other hand, Kindle Paperwhite has come out, with E-ink suitable for reading. Also, there are tablets with 11.6" or even 13.3" display, which can better fit the size of A4. I am quite confused.

Can you guys give me some suggestions? Thank you.
