eTextbooks

[BonBon]

Has anyone used these before? Almost all of my reading is done on my iPad or Kindle, so I certainly don't mind the electronic format. I have noticed with non-fiction reference-type books, it's not easy to find info I'm looking for, as opposed to a paper book where I have it in my mind where something is and can just flip through. I looked at eTextbooks last night, and it looks like there are some useful features and relatively easy to use.

Any drawbacks? Several of my texts are hefty behemoths, and I'd just as soon not break my back or my messenger bag.

My negative with ebooks is that I tend to get migraines when looking at anything electronic for too long and my eyes get tired. I like old school textbooks because I tend to retain more info with them for some reason.

No personal experience, but DH has been using our iPad for this first time for a gigantic path book he didn't want to carry around. He loves it. Uses an app that allows you to highlight, etc
