E-ink: Mobile Devices and How We Read

By : Thomas Brenndorfer

Does reading in e-ink live up to the hype? With more conveniences, such as wireless access and built-in dictionaries and annotation capability, e-ink devices can build on their main features of low power consumption and highly readable screens. While I was reading a downloaded book from our library, I became absorbed by the text because I was free of the distractions that come from reading on a computer. If we are fully engaged as readers, it does not matter what technology we use to read the text.
