It all came down to what software was available to do what you wanted to do, and the software you needed would partly determine what you had to buy to run it.

Exactly! Still making up my mind about step 1, the what do you plan to part. Hopefully will do so before we get connected to the world wide mind and ebook readers become obsolete.

You're in the right place to do the research. Whatever might be used to display an ebook, someone on MR uses it and can give you chapter and verse on its strengths and weaknesses.

It's a great community. Lots of really knowledge and helpful folks here to help steer me away from the shoals and set my rigging up right.

What sort of training, and what form to the ekits take? What must you use to read them?

We've emailed them about the possibility of taking notes in the Ekits. Haven't heard back yet. But, as far as I can tell from their website's FAQ, the training manuals are PDFs (and the trainers send paper notepads and pens in advance of the class to go along with the Ekit which kinda implies ...). We're taking the course in one of our company's training rooms which have regular desktop PCs with Adobe Acrobat reader software.
