reading on an iPaq in Oak Park, IL
Glad to meet all who read here.
I have an old iPaq 3536 and use it to read books among other things.
My device is good for reading:
1. Right Size
2. Backlit
3. .lit, .pdf, .doc even .txt formats work fine
Improvements would be:
1. automatic scrolling
2. more fonts and more font sizes
3. better resolution
4. more storage space
I would not buy a dedicated reader. Because
1. I want my email and contacts with me
2. I want to be able to run applications
3. I want to type on it (using portable keyboard)
4. I want color
5. I want to play music and video
6. I am thrifty and poor
