Lyn, I have scanned pages from two Romanian Point lace books that I own. I scanned the pages with various fillings so that I will always have them with me. That way I can take just my project with me and pick my fillings on the fly or use the scanned pages as a reference. I can zoom in closely and I have an easel stand for my Nook Color that allows the device to stand on the table in front or beside me. So far it has worked well for me. I've also scanned some of the tatting patterns that I use on a regular basis so that they are always available as a reference.
I don't know how it would work for bobbin lace. Maybe scanning the working diagram would be useful, but I cannot print from my Nook, so a full bobbin lace ebook with the prickings in it wouldn't be functional, at least at this time.

For those who have that or a similar device, do you, or would you use your device when you make lace? Would you read your lace books on such a device if available? How difficult is it to take the paper copy of the pricking or diagram and put it on the kindle/device? Or vice versa, kindle/device to paper pricking. Would something like a kindle or other device fit comfortably on a pillow? - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
