Question:

Has anyone used their E-reader (regardless of brand) for text books? I bought one with the hopes that it would be simpler and more ready for me to read, but I still find myself needing the hard copy to underline and highlight (yes I have tried using that technique with in the reader it is just not as conducive to page flipping to find the source).

What are your experiences? If any with text books?

Yep. One of my textbooks for this semester is on my Kindle, as was one last semester. I get the ebook edition whenever one is available. That doesn't happen very often, but often enough that I can generally get at least one per semester. I'm hoping as ebooks get more popular, more textbooks will be available. Especially if they continue to be discounted from college bookstore prices as much as they generally have been so far.
