Hi there,
I'm a student, in Italy, so relatively without money.
And I study Law. In this last months I started to use, due to investigation activities, many electronic document for studying. A lot of PDFs, a lot of them with a fixed formatting or scanned images, EPUBs.
I've always printed them. €0,02/A4, it doesn't cost a lot.
But It's a waste of time go every time to print them, and a waste of paper, too. And, many times, I prefer not to print and save money, but not to read.
I can't use the pc to read, too many problems with my eyes.
So I've start to study the sector of >10 ereaders, I have some questions:
1) It's possible to study with an ereader? Underlining, etc?
2) 10 inches is enough? Or for a4 I need a >13'' reader?
3) I focused on Onyx Max Carta and Onyx Max2. The difference in price is big, I found the first at €420 (used), €550 new, the second €799 new.
But I'm not convinced by the first for the lack of real touch screen, the lack of sensitive stylus pressure, an old android version, the lack of HDMI in-port.
But, is it worth it?
