Just curious, the small Kindle WiFi is priced fairly now, and I'm curious if
any of you are using it successfully to study. I'm a bit wary as the small
screen size might make it difficult to see a diagram, or read much more than
a paragraph in a Ciscopress book. I'm also looking at the DX, which IMO is
still very unfairly priced, and lastly the Ipad.

I've heard the Ipad is a bit heavy to hold and read like a book. The touch
screen just rocks for turning pages, and zooming in, but, I'm leaning
towards something more purpose built for the job, and cheaper. The Ipad is
an expensive toy to break.

I'm curious of any reviews or opinions you guys might have.
