  • laughs in oldschool ereader

    no wonder they didn't want to pursue that technology, imagine sharing books for free...they try to sell ebooks for the same as a paperback. lmfao' who wants some free ebook blogs?

  • Right now I'm using an old rooted (and beat to hell) nook simple touch for reading a lot of theory. I'm hoping to upgrade to a Kobo one day once I can talk myself into spending the money.

    • I'm keeping an eye on this, might end up being a decent option once it matures a bit https://www.pine64.org/pinenote/

      • I've always been a fan of the things pine is doing, my biggest want in an e-reader is battery longevity. If I can get a week or more in of pretty consistent reading I'd be really happy. The pine note definitely has a faster processor, which makes me think it wouldn't last quite as long.

        But of course the openness of it would be a huge huge plus regardless.

  • I forget who linked to these details, but amazon makes stuff like this legally defensible by being ambiguous about ownership of a kindle book... IE when you buy a book, you're only buying the ability to read / access it, not the book itself.
