Electronic Paper eBook Readers
Portable reading devices like the Amazon Kindle, Sony Readers, PocketBook, and Kobo all use a unique technology called epaper, which aims to mimic the look of ink on printed paper.
Epaper is very energy efficient—a battery charge can last up to 2 months—and it is easily readable in bright light, unlike LCD tablets, computers, and phones. And since it isn't backlit, electronic paper is known to minimize eye strain, especially when reading for extended periods.
Dedicated e-reading devices with epaper screens are becoming widely available all over the world. In fact Amazon now offers the Kindle internationally to over 170 countries.
Color eReaders and Tablets
Ever since the Apple iPad made reading on LCD screens popular, an explosion of Android tablets marketed as ereaders are hitting the market: the Nook Color, Pandigital Novel, Cruz Tablets, NextBooks—to name a few.
Color ereaders and tablets are more suited for reading magazines, newspapers, children's books, comics, and web content than dedicated ebook readers with monochrome screens.
As technology continues to evolve, tablets and ebook readers are merging into one with new color display technologies like Mirasol, Pixel Qi, and color electronic ink that offer outdoor reading and lower energy use.
