For computer and other large-size texts, I think a Kindle DX or one of those iRex iLiads would be better. The screens are much larger.

Is that book made for the kindle? Since I am guessing books that are made to be on the kindle are checked to make sure it looks half decent at least.

Hmm that really sucks. How about converting pdfs(even though I hear that is hard to do). Is there some good format that will work with computer books.
