Hello from fellow lurker - PDF options welcome
Hi all -- just wanted to say hello.

Been lurking for the past month as I decide whether or not to jump into the world of dedicated eBook Readers.

I am mainly intent on reading PDFs from Magazines, Books (purchased), Scanned A4-sized papers/handouts, etc. Most of the PDFs are content heavy with computer screenshots, tables, diagrams, and of course text!

Anyway, thanks for reading!

Good to have your company, Originl. The iPad handles PDFs well, of course, but there are also some eink devices that do a good job. Someone more clued up than I am will be along soon to name them for you. Good luck and best wishes. Neil

Hi All - Thanks for the warm reception!

Unfortunately, I stare at LCD screens for 12+ hours a day for work; so I'm looking for e-ink-like technology products. But who knows, I may look over that requirement and end up with an iPad.

Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome and "read" you guys 'round the boards!
