Comparison of e-book readers

Comparison of e-book readers

An e-book reader is a portable electronic device that is designed primarily for the purpose of reading digital books and periodicals. E-book readers are similar in form to a tablet computer. A tablet computer typically has a faster screen capable of higher refresh rates which makes them more suitable for interaction. The main advantages of e-book readers are better readability of their screens especially in bright sunlight and longer battery life. This is achieved by using electronic paper technology to display content to readers. Any device that can display text on a screen can act as an e-book reader, but without the advantages of the e-paper technology.

Other mobile text viewers

Some portable multimedia players and smartphones include a text viewer, e.g. several Cowon players, including the Cowon D2 and the iAUDIO U3 and Mobipocket Reader for Symbian OS and Windows Mobile mobile phones and devices. Adobe Reader mobile also turns Windows Mobile devices (for example, Samsung Omnia) into e-book viewers. Apple's iPad, iPhone,[89] and iPod Touch are acquiring status as e-book readers through a variety of e-reader apps. WordPlayer, FBReader, Aldiko or Mantano Reader turn Android phones into e-book readers. The BlackBerry PlayBook has a number of excellent e-book applications. Palm OS based devices and smartphones are also usable for reading books. PalmOS supports PalmDoc, iSilo, Mobipocket reader, PDF, HTML conversion, text format, Handstory, TealDoc among many other software titles, and word processing. Some mobile devices support word processing. Some fully functional tablet notebooks (with screens that turn 180 degrees and lie with the back to the keyboard) and subnotebooks are used as e-book readers.
