The first pdf with 2 columns would be a problem if you try to read/annotate on the eink size. But if you just want to read it you can use the tablet (LCD) and the should work fine. While currently I don't know of any pdf editor for the LCD that allows handwritten notes I know that once we get the Froyo update there will be some available like Repligo. Alternatively you can use something like
Briss to convert the 2 column document to 1 column.

When you're taking notes, once you've filled the screen, what happens? On the Fujitsu, you just scroll down and keep going - it's still one document (at least in OneNote, and I've never used anything else). Do you have to save screen by screen? Sorry to be so ignorant. I don't sit in meetings and take copious notes, but I do take enough notes to remind myself of what happened.
As to pdfs, most of what I read isn't very technical. Here are a couple recent examples:
The EDUCAUSE Horizon Report on educational technology http://net.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/HR2011.pdf (I see there are 2 columns)
Articles at McKinsey Quarterly - example - Three steps to building a better top team https://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/Th..._top_team_2743
I discovered the PE when I started looking at eReaders last week. I really have never considered them - I don't want something else to carry that just does one thing. But I became aware that a few of them are starting to do more - and then I saw the Pocket Edge and fell in love. |
