re: #403 researchok

Thanks for the advice. Shopping for tech nowadays is crazy- and it’s not like I’m some kind of expert. Hell, I’m barely a half assed user!

I am a bit of a techie, so any questions I can help with I am happy to do so.

Really, it does come down to what you want. If you want a “booklike” reader, go with kindle. If you want a mulitpurpose device that can do reading “ok” go iPad.

The kindle really does prevent eyestrain. I cannot imagine reading at night in bed with an iPad for long. That white screen would cause me headaches, and even though it is small, it would be too much to hold upright for novel type reading.
