Ah well, most of mine are quite simple pdf's, formatted for A4 mostly, so no real issue. Plus, because I use a Mac, converting anything at all to a pdf couldn't be easier.

I bought it because I spend a lot of my time on roofs and in sunlight on building sites, either refering to and marking up tech docs and drawings, or taking survey notes. Paper gets wet or blows away, and a laptop is unreadable and likely to get damaged (too big to carry up a cat ladder safely). The Irex is the perfect solution.

OK, so not perfect - colour would be handy, as would a lower price, pdf searches and faster response, but after years of trying all kinds of other solutions it's damn close
