Hi all. The background (to clarify my predicament), is that as a full time carer for my disabled wife, it's natural that she has priority over what others would deem a trivial matter. Limited funds aside, it's what carers do
We often find ourselves looking for ways to alleviate the guilt we feel when (yes), we do ask for something.
I think you'll find most long term carers feel exactly the same way (see, i'm even doing it here
).
My choice of the Pocketbook is that i find my large screen 10" tablet much better for reading with. I have many books which include PDF's of old text, and whilst the tablet works ok for this, it would be great to be able to add notes for text correction. Also unlike my tablet, i would not have to charge it every night
When it comes down to it there are not many choices available for large format interactive readers.
Tablets are good, but are not naturally made for text input. I rest my hand on the surface when writing so it's precise and legible, try as i might, this is impossible with a tablet as it contains no palm recognition. Why use something not designed for your purposes when you can use something that is
On choice of a large screen interactive reader i find both good and bad reviews. i know there will never be a 'perfect' reader as faults are invariably be found in all according to the users preferences.
Time for a cup of tea
Regards
