I use Newton every day for note taking and as an e-reader. I works good in
full sun and in dark. To read an e-book on PC Tablet is difficult. I get
tired because of the strong backlight. On Tablet battery survives only 2-3
hours. It gets hot when intensively used.
E-paper devices don't have backlight. To read in bed is a problem.
Iphone is too small to it for note taking or as e-reader.
So, Newton, still going strong.
Show me a device which is more flexible.
