Gear Lover - by Craig Hill

Panasonic launches new e-book reader

September 27th 2006 01:00
Panasonic Word Gear
Well, well, what do we have here? Panasonic has dropped a new e-book reader called Word Gear. This device is meant for lazy people who want to relax their eyes while being immersed in the latest thriller written by John Grisham. Either that, or they're just plain lazy to thumb through a novel. The Word Gear e-book reader comes with a 5.6" touchscreen display with a resolution of 1024 x 600 which makes it easy on the eyes. A SD memory card slot is included for you to store all your e-books on the world's most popular card storage format. The Word Gear measures 105mm x 18.5mm x 152mm and weighs 325g, making it heavier than some paperbacks.

Here's a quick question - do you guys prefer reading books in the electronic format, or is there more satisfaction derived from turning the page yourself while sipping on a Pina Colada? I personally prefer sticking to good ol' paperbacks, but electronic newspapers are fine for me.
