The screen is slightly larger than the iphone--same resolution and the backlight is just right.<br/>The treo's screen is too small for reading IMHO<br/>Now the iphone is great--but still the backlight is a bit too bright. Nevertheless it's still going to be one of the most popular reading device in the world~ Great article!
I have pretty much the same experience–from the good old palm to the iphone.
Used to have a tapwave zodiac–which I think is the best pda for reading. The screen is slightly larger than the iphone–same resolution and the backlight is just right.
The treo’s screen is too small for reading IMHO
Now the iphone is great–but still the backlight is a bit too bright. Nevertheless it’s still going to be one of the most popular reading device in the world~
