ipads/e-readers

[boohill]

Hello

Im just wondering if anyone here uses laptops, e-readers, iphones, ipads or any other electronic devices for nursing school? If so which ones do you find most helpful and convenient? Are your text books available online?

Im currently waiting for the blackberry playbook to come out (hopefully in March)

Hi there. I used to use a netbook, which was helpful, but once the iPads came out...I snagged one of those and have been loving it. I use VitalSource Bookshelf as my online bookstore to order and download almost all of the books I've needed for school (many printed by Evolve/Elsevier). I can make notes or highlight on a computer, and it will sync to the iPad. I found that I save time, and my load that I carry is many, many times lighter. Also, if you happen to have an Iphone, all your books and notes can be synced to that as well.
