At the moment, ereaders are useless for higher education. Since 2011, I own an Onyx M92.Originally, I bought it to read textbooks and scientific articles. While I do have several 100 MB of both loaded onto the device, I mainly use it for pleasure reading or, at best, looking up a paper while on the road. Nothing beats the simplicity and spead of going back and forth between actual physical pages. An actual computer is able to simulate that, but even that is inconvient. An ebook reader is simply too painfully slow.
Any suggestion to the contrary makes me doubt if the person suggesting to use an ereader for serious studying has, in fact, used an ereader for said purpose.
