Studying on the go
Hello,
I really like to review my class notes when i'm taking the bus/subway. At first I tried an iPod Touch and it was pretty good (especially with Dropbox for notes syncing on my laptop) but I found the screen a bit too small. I tried the iPad but found it too heavy to hold for reading because of chronic pain.
I am very close to trying out the Archos 5 Internet tablet. I am relatively tech savy and I heard that there are a lot of hacks out there to support more Android apps. Dell Steak looks great but holy $$$...
I would still like to hear any other suggestions though. My main concern is to be able to read ebooks but most importantly .doc files (.jpg scanned stuff wouldn't hurt for handwritten notes). Ideal size between 4.8 - 7, preferably on the lower end.
edit: The Kindle 3 is actually pretty tempting, but is it practical for reading .doc files (can I convert files for free?)
Thank you for any suggestions,
Nicholas
