Agree. Looks like iLiad is the best for a graduate student reading many PDF files and taking notes.

The only other thing that I've found, which is really exciting for students and office professionals, is a device that is scheduled to bit the open market in 2010 from a company called Plastic Logic. It's like a tablet about the size of a clipboard that has a touch screen and styles for note taking that can read many formats - it's also not tied to a proprietary eBook retailer. If you're interested in checking out the link; http://www.plasticlogic.com/ - unfortunately the only draw back is the wait and the unknowns (things almost always change before a product actually arrives on the market including the price, which is as yet undetermined, but supposedly 'competitive').
I also really like the idea of the iRex 1000s reader (also except for the $1000 + that it will cost me here in Canada). So, cbell, if you do get a chance I'd love to see some images. Thanks again to everyone for posting here. |
