For the record and the thread - I will read on anything that works, notebook and PC monitors (especially for the likes of PDF, reference and art), phone or tablet, but predominantly on a Samsung tablet. I do have one ereader left, an old Sony T1 unused. I do review current ereaders, although that getting less convenient to do as fewer retail outlets now sell them here ("them" is Kobo and Kindle) or put display space to phones and tablets, but remain unconvinced  . |
Yep, I would probably read on long flights too, if I ever had them (I'm too lazy to travel and my job has never required it either). As for reference and art books or any books with large color photos, I prefer to get the paper editions. I've tried to read them on my tablet and my laptop, but again that unidentifiable factor strikes... I just don't like the experience. I'm in no way a fan of paper books, and I love doing various things on my tablet, just not book reading.
