So what if major airlines decide you can use your cell at 30,000 feet in the air? Pretty soon, squinting at a smartphone to read anything longer than a tweet will seem barbaric, writes Erik Sofge for the Wall Street Journal. Good thing Sofge has come up with a game plan for flinging content from computer and phone screens to a more ergonomic device—your e-reader or tablet.
Like sitting in all the office chairs at Staples to find “the one,” you might want to test run a device before you commit. At the top of Sofge’s list is the Kobo Aura HD at $170, on which images and text look “better than any other e-ink reader out there.” The device’s black-and-white, high-resolution screen make even knuckledragging whitepapers look beautiful. A Web service called Pocket can beam bookmarked Web pages to the Kobo device for reading.
