Personally, I think Samsung waited too long to launch the S WiFis. They should launch the S II WiFis at this point. I mean, how difficult is it to leave a 3G/4G radio out of any smartphone and then market it as a player? |

Me too. I really like the high resolution of iPod Touch (326dpi) and hope there will be an Android device that approaches that. A 5" screen with the same number of pixels as iPod (960x640) would probably be close enough.

I voted for iPod Touch. I have both an iPhone 4 and iPad 2. For reading comics, iPad 2 wins, no question. For novels, etc, I prefer the iPhone. The iPad might have a larger screen but the Retina Display on the iPhone just looks so much nicer. On the iPad, I have to make the font quite a bit larger to be comfortable.
Being able to use just one hand for holding the iPhone/iPod Touch and turning pages is also a big bonus. I'm actually considering buying a latest generation iPod Touch to act as back-up reader for my iPhone when it's charging, etc. Just waiting for some really cheap refurbs (probably around August or September). However, I would love to see a 5~6 incher with Retina Display (or similar technology). I can't use e-ink since I do a lot of reading in the dark. |

Last night when I crawled into bed, I had my Droid X, by my side and docked as my alarm clock, and I had my iPad on my lap reading. As I started getting tired, the iPad was too cumbersome and I didn't want to fall asleep on it, so I put it aside and grabbed the Droid X and attempted to read some more. I have to admit, for reading in the bed, I like had little the Droid X is next to the iPad. Especially when I may fall asleep w/ it in my hand. |

I hate overhead light. Would something like LightWedge work with eInk readers?

iPad
It is not a dedicated ereader, is a tablet, but works great as ereader. I use it with GoodReader to read PDF files; Kindle app. for my computer books; Zinio for Magazines. Because is 10" is awesome. Enough size to enjoy the magazine's pictures, for example. The Kindle 3 is my portable and eink device, love it. But the iTouch is just too small for me to use it as ereader. Besides I have an Android phone ;-) ... which servers as a similar device and I prefer Android Os. Last edited by jocampo; 05-13-2011 at 05:06 PM. |
