Anybody here know of a sub-£50 device which will dislay a simple text file
e-book for reading?....Ideally, something small and the size of a pda or
mobile phone.....Colour screen is not necessary, nor are any other whiz-bang
features.....Just need something that will display text files no bigger than
2 or 3 mb in size....
