> Personally i find studying from a pdf basically impossible.
Agreed. Until and unless i can get a e-ink/e-paper display (minimum A4 size, 13" or more is better) which will not cause eye strain/fatigue it is impossible to read any kind of technical book electronically for long periods of time. And this i say as a person who owns a 27" iMac, a iPad, a Nexus10 and a couple of 10" and 16" inch laptops. I have a huge collection of technical books as pdfs which i only consult on my devices. For serious studying of any books i always get a paper copy; nothing else works.
I mentioned/implied three things; a) The nature of the display causing eye-strain/fatigue b) The size of the display being inadequate and c) The needs of a technical book/paper rendering. This trifecta has not been solved (i believe intentionally) by the Industry at reasonable cost. All i am asking for is A4 (or larger) size display using some technology which does not cause eye-strain/fatigue and some software which can render pdf/epub/whatever correctly.
My current setup is iBooks on iPad, MoonReader Pro on Android and Adobe on desktop/laptop none of which is optimal for reading/studying for long periods of time.
