Need help finding teh best tablet for me
 
Hello,
I an a Registered Nurse. I carry the Palm TX for my reference books. I am also starting work on another degree through an online school. Most of my books will be in PDF format. I think I can get a palm emulator for my reference books, but I am not sure how the pdf reader will work. I have read good and bad about them. Any help at all would be appreciated.

Peace

if you are referring to the "portable document format" as in adobe type pdf's then i am going to make a scandelous suggestion.... get an ipod touch.. i have a 770 (on ebay for sale) a n810 and now an ipod touch... for reading the touch is far superior than my n810 the touch does not do as much and is not as versitile as the n810- but for just reading the touch is best in my opinion.

The touch maybe better at reading pdfs than the tablets but I would add that people have been able to get the Merck Manual and other med apps working.

Can you elaborate on this? In what ways is the touch better? It seems that with a bigger screen the N810 would be better...
