| 14:06 | < abudhabi> | So. |
| 14:07 | < abudhabi> | I want to get myself some sort of long-battery-life document reader gizmo. |
| 14:09 | <@TheWatcher> | I've heard there's these things called "Books" that people claim have near-infinite battery lives. Nor sure I believe it myself~ |
| 14:09 | < abudhabi> | I want to be able to read arbitrary files (restriction on format is not really an issue, I can have stuff converted, but being able to read PDFs would be very good), not being restricted to some kind of proprietary content store. |
| 14:09 | < abudhabi> | TheWatcher: I have a few of those. They're bulky and expensive. |
| 14:09 | < abudhabi> | Not to mention have hard-coded content. |
| 14:09 | <@TheWatcher> | More seriously though, IME all PDF reading on any non-desktop device is shit. |
| 14:10 | < abudhabi> | Then any proper ebook format. These things are convertible in a million ways. |
| 14:12 | < abudhabi> | I had a tablet, but that's not specialized, slow as shit (the one I had, at least) and I accidentally sat on it. |
| 14:12 | <@TheWatcher> | I've heard good things about the Kobo Auras |
| 14:13 | <@TheWatcher> | They apparently have hilariously long battery lives |
| 14:13 | < abudhabi> | Price range? |
| 14:14 | | * abudhabi has used a GBA as an ebook reader during his university days. It was awful, but it worked. |
| 14:15 | <&ToxicFrog> | abudhabi: $100 CDN for the Aura. |
| 14:15 | <&ToxicFrog> | I was just researching this stuff after my Sony e-reader died and I needed a replacement. |
| 14:15 | <&ToxicFrog> | The Touch 2.0 is $90, but those $10 in savings are not worth it, you lose a lot relative to the Aura. |
| 14:16 | <&ToxicFrog> | I went with the Glo HD, which is $130; capabilities are similar to the Aura, but it has a nicer UI for operating the lighting and a better screen. |
| 14:17 | <&ToxicFrog> | If you want something you can kick around a bit more, the Aura H2O is water- and dust-resistant and has a high res screen, but you'll be paying an extra $50 relative to the Glo and it's too big to fit comfortably in a pocket. |
| 14:19 | < abudhabi> | Hmm. I'll consider these, if I can find any used ones for half price or something. |
| 14:19 | | orth_ [orthianz@Nightstar-mhe.vd4.148.118.IP] has quit [Connection closed] |
| 14:19 | <&ToxicFrog> | For PDFs specifically, they will read PDFs and support zoom, pan, and landscape mode, but won't reflow. |
| 14:19 | < abudhabi> | reflow? |
| 14:19 | | orth [orthianz@Nightstar-6ntg3u.xtra.co.nz] has joined #code |
| 14:19 | <&ToxicFrog> | It won't reformat the text to fit on the e-reader screen. |
| 14:20 | <&ToxicFrog> | It renders the page exactly as it appears in the PDF and your only options for controlling that are zoom and orientation. |
| 14:21 | <&ToxicFrog> | Compare the Sony PRS-* readers, where you can detach the text from the PDF typesetting and it'll (usually, it chokes on some files) act like a normal ebook with some wonky paragraph breaks. |
| 14:21 | < abudhabi> | Well, I'm used to not being able to reflow PDFs on a desktop. |
| 14:22 | <@TheWatcher> | desktop dispays tend to be larger >.> |
| 14:22 | <&ToxicFrog> | Yeah, you need it less on a 22" screen than you do on a 6" one. |
| 14:22 | <&ToxicFrog> | That said, it's usually "good enough", and 99% of my books are in epub or something convertable to epub anyways. |
| 14:23 | <&ToxicFrog> | As far as content store stuff goes, you need to log in during setup (either with a Kobo account, or something that does oauth to it like Google or Facebook), but having done so there are no restrictions on sideloading books or using it offline. |

| 15:26 | <@gnolam> | I'm pretty happy with my H2O so far. |
| 15:29 | <&ToxicFrog> | I considered the H2O, but being able to fit my e-reader in my pocket rather than my backpack is a pretty big draw for me. |
| 15:29 | <&ToxicFrog> | Bigger than having one I can take into the shower. |
| 15:31 | <@gnolam> | Well, it fits in both my regular and suit jacket pockets. |
| 15:35 | <&ToxicFrog> | The Glo HD just barely fits in my pants/shorts side pockets. The Aqua might fit in my coat pockets, but that doesn't help except in the winter. |

| 22:13 | < abudhabi> | This bolded text is literally two fonts layered on top of one another to give the appearance of boldening. |
| 22:14 | <@TheWatcher> | PDF documents aren't normally editable because they're an output format, primarily designed for printing and ensuring the same formatting regardless of platform. |
| 22:16 | < [R]> | IIRC they just encapsulate postscript, and add some multimedia and attack-vector components. |
