I have a Sony Vaio Picturebook... I hope that this does not discourage
any writers but at 1 kg it is the weight of a book and yes you can take
it to the loo (english for bathroom, bog...).
For reading e-books a tool to rotate the screen would be nice. The
e-book reader for windows does it. I'll have to read the XFree docs to
see if my neomagic card does this in X too.
I will have Acrobat 5 in the next few days. If you are interested maybe
it would be worth while to convert the .ps docs to e-book format?
Off home - temperature is back up over 30° again so time for a beer or two.
Cheers
