RIM has abosolutely no control over the books that I read on my blackberry storm.
Hi JB,
The iPad is a bit more difficult as a book reader in that it is heavier than a Kindler or Sony for example. It is not so good in bright sunlight either, compared with those 2. At the moment, I can't compare prices because I'm borrowing from friends but this will soon come to an end.
Kind regards,
John.
