OK, here's my deal: I print and read around 20-30 A4 pages every day. That's a lot of trees. I guess I have the responsibility for around 3 % of the deforestation in the world...
So I want something that I can use instead of the paper. Formatting and other details means that I have to use something that can show a full A4 page at the same time. Besides I like large gadgets. My phone is a HTC HD! So any smaller readers aren't really an option. Not to mention that the price isn't that important, I run my own company and will get a good tax deduction for this thing. Anything up to $1000 is all right by me.
I would like to be able to buy and read books as well, but I must say that the work stuff is a lot more important. So being able to read the files (they are Word documents, but I can convert them to PDF with a "print to PDF" driver I have) is essential. 3G is of no interest, I won't be using that anyway. I will use WiFi to connect it to the Net, at home or anywhere else, where I bring my 3G router. But being able to use this to read webpages (like web newspapers) would be a big plus for me. I use the phone for that now, but I'm really much more at home with something that I won't have to move down the page every ten seconds...
I thougth the Que was perfect for me, but then I stumbled over the specs for the Skiff. I like the navigation wheel, and the design. Not to mention the material. It looks like it can take some punishment. But so can probably the Que. I know that the Que won't have a we browser I can use (if it's not hacked, that is). But does anybody know if the Skiff will have that?
Finally, anybody know when there's going to be more news about the Skiff? The Que is arriving in April, and I won't be waiting until the fall to get a reader. But if the Skiff is arriving this side of the summer, and has a web browser I can use over WiFi that will be my choice. Should I wait for now, or should I guess that the Skiff won't be there in time and get the Que when that's out?
Any tips would be appreciated!
