Some people doesn't see or understand why they should use real e-ink based e-readers to read books on when they already have a smartphone like the iPhone or a Tablet like the iPad to do that on. So in this video I'll try to explain why you should use dedicated ebook readers instead of smartphones or tablets.
Some benefits:
- no eye strain or headaches because it uses e-ink and not lcd, and no PWM
- can read excellent outside in direct sunlight
- Doesn't need built in light
- Has front light instead of backlight
- Excellent Battery life - only uses energy when turning pages
- no distractions
- doesn't need internet
- automatically shows the book cover as screen saver
