ans Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Going away soon for a few days to a hot country to play basketball and as I loathe the heat and the sun burns me to a crisp, I'm probably going to be spending a lot of time in the hotel or somewhere covered... which means I'll most likely be on my own a lot as the rest of the team are sun whores. I've stocked up on eBooks in advance and I'd always planned on borrowing my dad's reader for the trip but I just found out that it doesn't have a mains adapter and battery life isn't great. Don't really want to be lugging a bag of AA batteries around with me so I want a reader of my own. Don't want to spend megabucks so I don't want an all singing all dancing PDA. Looking for a pretty cheap, multi format reader. Anyone know of one? Google is, as usual when searching for products you don't know a great deal about, full of paid ads and marketing guff.

Slim Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Palm Zaire? I wouldn't bother though, unless you're going for weeks, a couple of paperbacks will do the job a load better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ans Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 I wouldn't bother though, unless you're going for weeks, a couple of paperbacks will do the job a load better. I read quickly and I'm picky about what I read so I might read a couple of chapters and then decide I don't want to read the rest. Palm Zaire looks interesting. Bill, no idea what I'm supposed to be seeing on that. Looks software only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDave Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 There's plenty of software available for PocketPC, all you need is a PDA... PIMPIN' LINK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
