(Actually you can use your computer as a Daisy reader, but audiobook files are hard to pirate and synthesized speech sounds like garbage.)

>reading in the middle of nowhere
There are outlets everywhere and in my dark room with the screen luminosity low my android lasts from 5 to 8 hours as it is. Buying an extra battery would make more sense.
What kind of idiot reads in public far from outlets for no reason? The tunnel vision just means someone can walk up and attack you at any given moment. It's silly to read randomly outside. Why did you leave you house? Go do thing then go back to the house. It's not like you have the excuse of being in school or a library.
Yeah, because the thinkpads are so easy to type on rather than just get used to another computer keyboard.

Magically better for your eyes yeah okay.

Even on a Kindle you can read pirated books.

the best ereader around is the onyx boox max 2.
it doubles up as a e-ink monitor so you can literally just shitpost on Yea Forums off it without getting a headache.
that said its a big, expensive thing so you can't just whimsically read your novel book in the grass as you would with a normal book. in which case something smaller is more appropriate. whatever basic onyx product should fill this role. another nook simple touch would also work.

i read outside on my lunchbreak everyday.
i read on aeroplane journeys
>keyboard.
if i could get an e-ink monitor i would do that but that assumes i only read at my desk at home when in fact i read on public transportation and in the park. unless you think i need to lug around a monitor to plug my phone into.
i dont know anything about kindles.
the nook is like a really early smartphone in e-ink.
you can read any type of document file, you can crudely draw and annotate pdfs, you can browse the web and you can remtely put files onto it.
can you do those things with a kindle?

Does rooting a nook touch improve it that much? I have a second-hand one, and while the default reader kind of sucks the device itself seems kind of slow when dealing with pdfs or larger files. I don't know if replacing the software would really fix that.
The exact same thing happens with print books all the time, digital piracy is the only reliable way of preventing censorship.

it doesn't accept EPUB and the screen is too tiny for PDF. good luck finding a MOBI for anything that isn't a New York Times Best-Seller.

the rooted nook has the following advantages:
1. you can browse the internet on it and download books (very cumbersme)
2. you can use airdroid to drop books into it from your phone or comptuer wirelessly (surprisingly useful)
3. you can draw on it (not useful)
4. you can text edit on it (not useful too small)
5. you can read pdfs and other file types on it with a myriad of different readers with different features (most useful thing about rooting it)
6. you can install an app on it that stops it refreshing the screen all the time so you can smoothly read a page of pdfs
its insanely useful for book sized pdfs that otherwised get fucked by calibre or the nook itself and it can be a very smooth reading experience.
the screen being tiny doesnt lend itself to most other tasks and its painfully slow and cumbersome trying to do anything fancy on it.
