Hi this is slightly off topic but the answer could be useful to others.
Looking at the amazon kindle it looks as if i can use it to open / read normal pdf files such as the one for the ubuntu manual, if this is the case it would be useful.
On another note, part of my Open uni studies requires me to read and highlight text in book, if i could get hold of electronic versions can i do this with kindle or other book readersl as in highlight text adnthen some how save the file with the highlights so i can use it to take notes, or perhaps there is other ways to attach notes to text.
i amk looking at several books on LInux atm, have very little shelf space left and don't want to be a tree killer by printing out documentation,
i can also buy electronic books cheaper than paper, copies any suggestions or ideas paul --ha Paul Sutton Cert SLPS (Open) http://www.zleap.net 17th September 2011 - Software freedom day -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
