Another newbie looking for purchasing advice
Hello everyone.
After ignoring the "mobile world" for a long time, I have recently started to think about purchasing a mobile device and getting into things. I browsed through Tablet-PCs, smartphones and ebook-readers and found a rather useful use-case for me, however I didn't find anything that was just right (for me).
I think I can do best with a good ebook-reader, since smartphones are too small and expensive and Tablet-PCs too expensive and oversized on functions.
My requirements:
- Should be able to read ebooks of <whatever-proprietary-format-the-device-has> and PDFs
- I'd also like to make notes and write/edit simple texts (a featureless txt-editor will do) & transfer them to my computer later
- Ability to be used offline without permanent online connection
- Ability to get fueled via USB or SD-card (or similar)
- Ability to show picture-files or play music is optional, but not necessary
- Moderate price range (150 Euros) and available in Germany
I was thinking about an amazon Kindle, but I'm unsure about its text writing-abilities since I have found confusing information on that. However, I don't want to purchase a full-sized tablet PC just because I want to edit texts.
Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!
