Love my reader ... spatter little bits of toothpaste on it despite my best efforts. My sweat doesn't scatter far enough to worry about, but the distance to the plexi-stand magazine support is too far for a 6 inch screen (at least for me), at the gym. Fortunately, I have a second book passion ... audiobooks. The only way I keep my daily average page consumption up to snuff (work crunch or not) is to maximize every spare minute .... call me obsessive (my wife certainly does).
I use audible.com (since '99). A great reader, can make even a reread a wonderful experience ... Patrick Tull doing the Master and Commander stuff ... the ultimate ), Frank Muller, Simon Vance, Nigel Planer (esp his Pratchett stuff). Almost a shame that Tull and Vance have doubled up on the O'Brian novels ... but, who could blame them ... if you are one of the top readers ... O'Brian has to be a temptation, and a joy.
