Hi,

I use a tablet a fair bit - they are good for PDF's, and I also use them for Zinio magazines. Toshiba M700 usually - I also read .lit and .prc files. Weight is significant, but in a train, you can live with it..

Also use a UMPC. Asus r2Hv. The colour screen is nice - and the machines are versatile. Battery life is grim though. The Sony 505 is nicer for novels - and it is lighter and the battery last for weeks,
Horses for courses...
