Wondering what the rest of you are using for ebook readers and where you're buying/renting your ebooks?
I have a Kindle Paper White which is great for reading fiction but sucks for anything technical. I get my ebooks from Amazon and from open source vendors that publish books in a Kindle format. I've tried to read PDF's on a Kindle but the experience was not pleasant. I've read several free ebooks in an Apple iBook and PDF formats on my MacBook Pro and found my laptop's screen made the reading experience much nicer than my Kindle for books that benefited from the larger screen real estate. I'm considering an iPad as an alternative reader. Are any of you renting technical books from Safari or using Amazon's flat monthly rate rental program for a subset of their books? What about purchasing ebooks from other publishers like Manning?
