Hello friends. I am looking to purchase an #eInk #eReader – and I wonder if the wise denizens of the fediverse might be able to advise me...
I have a fairly specific use-case. I have a large number of PDF files that I want to be able to read (ranging from books I have purchased as PDFs, through to free or out-of-print books from archive.org, academic papers, articles or blog posts which I have "printed" to PDF to read later on a bigger screen than my phone, etc.)
I am currently doing this on my iPad – but this isn't ideal because a) it's not always easy to read the screen in bright light (I like to read outside when it's nice), and b) because of my #AuDHD brain, I get easily distracted – and having *everything else* on my iPad means that I easily lose focus, and find I've not actually managed to read anything.
I want a device with the largest screen possible (ideally A4 / US letter sized), with a good resolution – color optional (but a "nice to have" since many of the documents have pictures or other illustrations).
I'm thinking about a #ReMarkablePaperPro – because it has a large (and by most accounts very good) screen; but none of the review I have read focus on what I want to do with it. They're all either about how amazing it is to write on (nice, and occasional annotation would be helpful; but fundamentally not my central use-case); or how terrible it is as an #eBook reader because it doesn't have a eBook store / doesn't support certain (often proprietary) file-types.
So has anyone here used one for reading PDFs? Does anyone have any other suggestions for this use-case?
Thanks in advance.
