i have looked for the pocketbook 912, but then i prefered the onyx boox m92 and at the moment this one is my first option but i want to be very sure about it will work for my.

And also i'm complicated for the shippment to my country that is quite far from europe...

in advance, thank for the help c:
A friend of mine has tried various ereaders for his MBA.
Eventually he capitulated.
His arguments against ereaders for studying:
a.) Most ereaders only allow for marking text, not scribbling freely. To him, this was a no go.
b.) Some pen-abled ereaders allow for jotting down notes. But you can't really manage them. In paper textbooks for example you could color the edges.
c.) Ereaders are painfully slow. Looking up words or notes in real-time is of no use.

Eventually, my friend bought a Windows convertible laptop. In his words: The best of both worlds. A full blown PC and an equally powerful tablet.

Maybe the new Windows 8 tablets from Microsoft will change the game?
