Apologies for the hiatus on the ebook posts, y’all; they ran into a roadblock when Seattle got smacked upside the head with winter early last week, and then the holidays kicked in, so!
As of tomorrow I will resume the rest of the ebook posts, though! If you missed the previous ones, here are their links:
- What kind of e-reader should you get? (Intro)
- Part 1: Ebook formats
- Part 2: Ebook pricing
- Part 3: Touchscreen vs. e-ink
Come back tomorrow for Part 4: Do you want a dedicated reading device?
