Why would I want to download a 1800+ page manual into a smaller viewing space when I've already got a 23" that I can zoom in on and read while I have x1 chugging along?

They're great on trains, planes, in waiting rooms, etc., etc. It's not either/or. Anything you have on a Kindle can also be read full-sized on the PC with a Kindle PC app, plus they both remember where you were when you left off on the other, which is nice.

And yes, sometimes I do...

Billy I did that with another app, printed the sections I thought I would want. Turns out the ones I needed I didn't print out. Bummer.

Ol Pal mentioned Kindle as a way to have a manual with one where ever one is. Kindle wont work with PDF files. But a book reader that did and was in the same price range would be very interesting.

1800 + pages is an awful lot of pages. Have fun Middleman.

I take my rarely used little netbook with me ;)

I can listen to music while reading in the potty lol

Gee, how refreshing to see a thread about users actually reading the manual!

Whew, this changes everything (copyright Bapu) LOL

Okay, at page 50 I just got through the Table of Contents. Ugh. Moving on to the actual content. 1850 pages, that should take a few reams of paper to print out. Even if you you print front and back its 925 pages. Going to lunch.

I knew somehow I would end up wanting one after my somewhat cheeky post
