It’s my most cherished possession, and it’s something I use on a day-to-day basis. Just consider… Check out PCWorld’s roundup of the best Kindle devices available right now. Oodles and oodles of books Henry Burrell / Foundry Having previously worked in the traditional publishing industry, I know many folks may balk at my positive opinions on electronic books.

The Kindle Scribe, at $340, is costlier than a basic e-ink reader, but it has stylus input, high latency and a few more tricks.This is... Continue reading at Engadget
