Lady Fitzgerald & J.Strnad:
You're both absolutely right. before putting useles gadgets and stuff into the readers
(aka cameratitis - a common celphone disease) rhe manufacturers should better polish and refine their primary function - text presentation
heck thery dont even have unicode fully covered, not to speak about the plethora of additional typography data every professional otf carries nowdays and which is completely ignored by the reader's software.
harryE what you call cloud storage, every computer user calls a fileserver - that's not a really new idea, just a new buzzword and as cyguy pointed out as long as there isn't free highspeed (T2 speeds and faster) access available regardless where you are it's not a real option.
Just as the shortest connection between 2 points is a straight line, the simpliest connection between 2 devices next to each other would be rather a cable than a server in somewheristan.
Yes I CAN set up a fileserver, but if somebody d'tell me i absolutely need to do so, in order to get files from my home machines to $device i'd tell him to bother somebody else with such moronic device.
If he 'd tell me that said procedure works only with the device makers own fileservers, I'd tell him to descend back to the hells he arose from.
I prefer my own storage for my own files for the same reason I prefer my own furniture rather than the coin-fed storage walls on the train stations:
accessibility, storage/price ratio and privacy.
well at least i got proof that apples iDevices are green tech:
after having read some fans postings in this thread i turned greenish in the face
