Hello all,
this is my first post in this forum I discovered a few days ago.
Up to now I'm using a Nokia N810 for ebook reading and as a remote control (UPnP control point) for my Linn Accurate DS music network player, but I'm not pleased with it: It has a maemo OS (Linux) and it is too small for ebook reading and it is too small for a music control point (you can hardly display any CD cover art or such things).
Then Mr. Jobs presented the IPad.
Oh yes ... this big screen ... with nice features and lightweight ... BUT I AS A WINDOWS GUY AND AN APPLE OS ?????
I have 6 PCs at home for me and my family which are running Windows XP and 7 and my work is also focused to Windows OS, I don't want to mix up my private IT environment with an restricted iphone OS.
Then a few days ago I coincidentally came across this forum. I originally was looking for some software to manage my some 10000 PDF files. I found a lot of stuff for this, but I also found plenty of other good stuff and ideas concerning ebooks, this is a great forum
Furthermore I found this thread, which released me out of my IPad dilemma:
I will go to a shopping mall today to lay my hands on a T91MT. I thought about a notebook convertible some months ago, but I did not follow this way, because I thought a convertible would be too bulky. But after reading this thread, I think the T91MT would be the solution for all my needs: It can be used like a slate, it has a Win 7 OS, a reasonably big screen, the possibillity to read all kinds of ebooks, there is good software available for my music network player and I can do some other stuff with it while chilling on my sofa.
To tell the truth: I would prefer a "HP slate" or something similar, but we will have to wait another year or so for such nice toys.
Thanks a lot Jack for this thread
Kind regards
Ebe
