一隻新手機，還有一個電子書閱讀器。

這樣通勤的時候就可以用手機看書，在家的時候可以用電子書閱讀器看。

If you do, what device do you use ?

I have an eee-note. It's a great e-reader device from Asus.

There is no backlight, so I can use it for many hours without hurting my eyes.

I also have a new Samsung Galaxy 2.

There is a nice app that provides lots of books for me to read.

Tell us about you e-book reading habits and experiences......
