How about you get a smart phone that supports pdf / doc files and read it anyway anywhere anytime you like. I read small pdf files with s40 reader. But it doesnt support all my books. But im sure a smart phone can.

Ahaha are you kidding? on such a small screen it'd much worse than it is on the computer.
If you want to read PDF's on the go, then there are things like tablet PC's and kindle's.

Even better. Get a tablet and your done.
Anyway i never had any problem reading documents on a touch screen phone.(i do need glasses tho) and Its easeyer to carey then a tab i think.

Well I had a tablet for a couple of days.
Also I read on my phone a lot but that def. sucks.
Reading is one of the things I like to do and call me old fashioned but nothing beats reading a real book.
Staring at a screen for hours in a row is just painful.
Also I like to read during breaks etc etc.
Any other suggestions.
Btw; Kulver ive downloaded that book and its on my candidate list.

Any other suggestions.
I got four
1.go to a library
2. Go to a book store
3. Buy books online and have them delivered
4.Download and Print books on paper.
AND I just wanted to say that i dont have any problem staring at a screen for hours unless its something boring .
Try keeping yourself busy computing . I had the same problem , it was painfull for me to sit in front of a computer for like an hour .but when i started using photoshop , word , excel etc and got busy teaching myself i got used to it. And now computing for hours feels like computing for minuts but i do take breaks every hour or two.
WARNING: Some people have died computing for a long time without even moving from their chair so their blood flow wasnt possible properly . So you need to take brakes and move your mussels to keep your work flow and blood flow smooth.

I appreciate your typing.
Im asking for suggestions on a book.
Reading for extended periods of time on a screen sucks period.
Ive covered entire books +300 pages long reading on a screen and yes it still sucks.
I can work on a pc for hours in a row thats not the problem.

I got a better solution now, dont read at all , just listen to them, there are many TTS (text to speech) apps available that reads texts and speak them out loud . Thats what i would do if i get tired of reading.
But if you still want hard cover books, then i got noting.
