Thread Name: BS: Why read an electronic book/Kindle?
Subject: RE: BS: Why read an electronic book/Kindle?
That makes perfect sense, VT. I also have 'some' vision problems and in Tom's EText reader, I can also choose font, as well as text size. I often use something called Palatino Linotype to read on the computer. (I...ummm...only have a few thousand other fonts to choose from...)

(I am playing with Kindle for PC, and it is ok, but since I am at home most of the time, the extra portability of a Kindle is not a big deal. I have a small laptop and Tom's reader, and more free books thru Project Gutenberg than I will ever have time for.

It's good to have many options available for people's different needs.
