So I’ve had my Kindle Touch for more than two weeks now and I must say I’m enjoying it so far.
But the screen refresh is still an issue for me. I might return it. Or not. It depends.
Anyway, I decided to write a short blog entry comparing my reading experience on the iPod Touch and my Kindle Touch.
Truth be told, what got me into the whole e-book reading experience was my iPod Touch. The iBooks app was pretty cool for me and I got to read maybe 4 or 5 books on my iPod Touch. I enjoyed it for a while. But it did give me eye strain. I experienced head ache some of the time so I would stop reading for an hour or two and then resume reading.
With the Kindle Touch, since it does read like paper, I don’t get the headaches as much. Not when the turning of the page works properly. When there’s a glitch and the Kindle refreshes the page every time, that’s when I get the headache. Probably because I find it annoying. Otherwise, I’m fine.
By the way, the Kindle Touch is only supposed to refresh the screen every 5 or 6 pages.
This is it for now. I’ll be going back to reading The Great Gatsby.
