An ebook reader is designed specifically for reading ebooks and not a great deal else. However, you can also read ebooks on a tablet computer, which will let you play games, browse the internet and send emails. The main decision is whether to spend your money on a dedicated ebook reader, or to read ebooks on a tablet or smartphone using an ebook reader app.
We take a look at the pros and cons of each below.
＊ Ebook Reader ＊
◆ Pros
Matte e-ink display designed to be easy on the eye for reading with little glare from reflected light
Light and slim - they tend to be lighter than the average paperback
Very good battery life - they can last up to two months on one charge
Usually cheaper than smartphones and tablets
◆ Cons
Generally no, or limited, internet browsing capabilities
Only some models have a touchscreen
Some basic models only have arrow keys to input text which can be slow and frustrating
Black and white screens rather than full colour
＊ Tablet ＊
Simply by downloading an app you can easily turn a tablet or smartphone into an ebook reader. Take a look at the pros and cons below to find out more.
◆ Pros
The apps themselves are often free
Screens are bright, colourful and good for viewing graphics
Tablets and smartphones are very versatile - you can browse the web, play games, watch TV and films, email and more
◆ Cons
Battery life is often much shorter - hours rather than weeks
Reading text on glossy screens isn't as comfortable as the matte screens of dedicated ebook readers - the glare might strain your eyes after a while
Tablets tend to be heavier than ebook readers
Smartphones have smaller screens which can make them hard to read from
I want to give you specific comparison with iPad VS Kindle Fire
Kindle Fire is ane-book reader and media device – it is not a tablet pc.iPad is a tablet pc and runs all the normal applications you expect on a pc – such as word processors and spreadsheets, etc.
However, a great many iPad owners spend most of the time using them for watching videos on youtube, chatting, and some do use them for reading e-books too. So, for the owners who uses a tablet pc primarily as a media device, it makes sense to compare the tablet to the Kindle Fire.
Let’s start with the prices: Kindle Fire – Only $199 – while iPad 2 costs starts at $499 (it can go much higher). The Kindle Fire accesses Amazon’s huge book library, Amazon Instant Video, Amazon MP3, Amazon Prime, Amazon Appstore, and Amazon Web Service. Amazon also developed a new, faster web browser called Amazon Silk, specifically designed for Kindle Fire. It’s a split browser that lives partially on Kindle Fire and partially in the cloud, taking full advantage of Amazon Web Services’ incredible computational horsepower to accelerate web browsing – something you won’t find in iPad’s Safari browser.

When using the Kindle Personal Document Service to convert formats, you can have the converted files sent to your Kindle wirelessly for a delivery fee or have them sent to an email address for free and then transfer them to the Kindle via USB or have them delivered via WiFi for the newer models.
Amazon will convert and wirelessly deliver the following format types:
Microsoft Word (.DOC) and (.DOCX)
Structured HTML (.HTML) and (.HTM)
Rich Text Format (.RTF)
PDF (.PDF)
Images: JPEG, GIF, PNG, and BMP
To make converting multiple files easier, the above formats can be packaged into a single ZIP file and sent to the Kindle conversion service.
Setting Up the Kindle Conversion Service
Go to Amazon’s Manage Your Kindle page and sign-in to your Amazon account. Then click on “Edit Info” under the Kindle section. Change the Kindle email address to whatever you want or leave it as is—then memorize it or write it down, save changes, and close the pop-up.
Paid Delivery: If you want to pay to have the converted documents delivered to your Kindle wirelessly via Whispernet, scroll down to the section labeled “Your Kindle Approved E-mail List”. Add the email address from the previous step to your Kindle’s whitelist, (your-choice)@kindle.com.
The delivery fee is 15 cents per MB in the US and 99 cents per MB outside the US. A typical ebook ranges from 1/3 to 3/4 of a MB.
Free Delivery: To avoid wireless delivery charges, you can have the converted documents delivered to your primary email address to add to your Kindle via USB cable, or have them delivered to a Kindle with WiFi so that you don’t get charged a delivery fee for using the 3G wireless. Just send the files to this address instead of the paid delivery one shown above, (your-choice)@free.kindle.com.
1.Open your document in a word processor such as Microsoft Word or Apple Pages.
2. Remove any layout or complex formatting. Stick with simple formatting options such as headings, bold, italics, underlining, bullet points and images without complex text-wrapping options. Complex formatting may not be preserved after conversion, as ebook formats are optimized for text -- think of a novel, not a magazine. Documents that are highly formatted should be formatted as an Adobe PDF rather than an ebook.
3. Export your document directly to the ePub ebook format if your word processor supports it. Apple's Pages supports ePub export starting with Pages '09. Microsoft Office does not natively support ePub export at time of publication.
4. Export your document to HTML format if your word processor does not support ePub export. In Microsoft Word, open the "Save As..." sub-menu under the "File" menu; select the "Web Page or Rich-text Format" option from this menu.
5. Select the "Web Page (.htm)" option from the drop-down menu in the Save As dialog box. Note the location you save the HTML document.
6. Download and install Calibre, cross-platform software for converting HTML documents to ePub ebook format. Alternatives to Calibre include software such as 2EPUB and online conversion services such as Book Glutton (links in Resources).
7. Open Calibre and click the "Add Books" button on the main toolbar. Select the document that you converted to HTML.
8. Select your book from the list and click the "Convert" button. Select "EPUB" from the "Output format" drop-down menu and enter title and author information.
Step-by-Step Instruction.
Conversion of HTML files
The first thing you'll need to do it enter your settings for Look & Feel.
Second is your Page Setup. This is where you select your device and set your page margins.
Third is Structure Detection which is where you enter your Table of Contents settings.
Once you have your settings in place it's time to prepare your HTML file to convert to Epub or Mobipocket format.
The cleaner your HTML is the easier it'll be to convert your document and experience fewer problems.
After you have cleaned your Word Doc or RTF and you convert the file to HTML it is time to open your HTML in Wordpad or Notepad++ or Notepad, basically you'll need to use one of these programs to view the source code of your HTML document.
I prefer Wordpad to edit my HTML code so that's what I'm using in this tutorial.
Right click on the document and choose which program to open it in and select Wordpad.
Once your HTML file is opened it is time to add your chapter tags <h2> to everything you'd like added to your Table of Contents.
<h2>Chapter One</h2>
<h2>Author Notes:</h2>
and etc...
Calibre can detect and add those tagged chapters to the Table of Contents if you have gone through the steps and added //h:h2 to your chapter detection.
This is also when you would want to check to make sure your images embedded correctly.
If you plan on centering the images add this code you'll have to use. Epub won't recognize any other css code.
<div style="text-align:center">
<img>
</div>
If your doc/rtf file was well made then you won't have to go through and search for <br> tags and replace those with <p>. Calibre automatically indents <p> tags. It does not indent <br>. Having said that it does not hurt to check for stray <br> tags or to clear out any other code that isn't <em>, <I>, <strong>, <b>, <p>, and ect...
Something to watch out for if you have multiple paragraphs using <strong> or <em> make sure the beginning of the paragraph starts with your <em> or <strong> tag. In web browsers if you forget to close a <em> tag all the rest of the text in the browser will remain <em> until it hits a closing </em> tag. That is not the case in Calibre. Calibre counts </p> as a closing tag for all formatting. Check to make sure your doc to html converting is adding your bold and italics tags at the beginning of your paragraphs.
Each conversion program has it's own coding that it adds and I use Microsoft Word Macros to fix/clean the HTML or to code my Chapter Headers with <h2>.
It is worth the time to explore Microsoft Word 2007 and learn how to create your own macros.
Once your HTML is ready, add it to Calibre.
Then highlight the story and click the button Convert E-Books:
Then , You'll get a box like this and this is where you'd add the author name, title, novel summary, book cover, and etc...
After this go to Look and Feel:
This is where you can modify your Extra CSS or font size. Once you hit OK Calibre will convert your ebook for you. From there you can download or transfer the file to your device. I normally open it in Calibre Viewer to check my Table of Contents and scan through the ebook for obvious errors like from page 20-100 all the paragraphs are centered. If your HTML source file has an unenclosed center tag that would mess up the text. Or if your header tag isn't closed properly all the paragraphs afterwards will stay bolded.
If you still do not undertand how to convert,
This is video will help you to understand how to convert text file/PDF into ebook or ipad.
This post I want to introduce you the best 3 ebook reader reviews.
These reviews give us the detail informations of functions and designs.
I hope this post help anyone who want and plan to buy the ebook reader.
1. Kindle Paper Reviw
The Kindle Paperwhite is the first ebook reader from Amazon to incorporate a frontlight for reading in lower lighting conditions. The light also gives the screen more of a white appearance than previous Kindles, hence the name Paperwhite. There are four different sub-models available. The ad-supported Wi-Fi model sells for $119, and the model with 3G wireless costs $179. Both are available for $20 more without ads (Amazon calls them Special Offers). If you get an ad-supported model and decide you don't care for the Special Offers, you can pay the extra $20 to remove them.
Pros
The LED frontlights and E Ink display combine to make the Paperwhite's screen readable in all lighting conditions.
It feels well-built and comfortable to hold, and the design is much improved over last year's Kindle Touch—it's thinner, better balanced, and doesn't have an overly-recessed screen for the IR touchscreen anymore.
The Paperwhite has a few exclusive software features that other Kindles don't have, including additional font types, a reading progress estimator, and instant translations.
Amazon finally added the option to view your library as book covers on the homescreen instead of just a list.
Amazon removed all audio support on this model, including text-to-speech, and also cut the storage space in half from last year's Kindle Touch.
The black outer casing shows smudges, crud, and dust more than previous Kindles.
They made the screensaver ads more annoying by requiring you to swipe the screen to bypass them after hitting the power button to turn the Kindle on out of sleep mode—it's a two step process now, and gets irritating after a while, even if you want the Special Offers to get deals.
2. Google Nexus 7 Review
The Nexus 7 is Google's first entrant into the crowded field of Android tablets. It's also the first tablet to ship with Google's latest mobile operating system, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. There are two variants of the Nexus 7. One has 8GB of storage space and sells for $199; the other has 16GB of storage space and costs $249. While it carries the Google name, the Nexus 7 is actually built and serviced by Asus, who is no stranger to Android tablets with their popular Transformer brand.
Pros
Solid build quality and superior hardware for the price.
Great design. It's thin and lightweight, making it easily portable and very comfortable to hold. Plus the soft stippled texture on the back is a really nice touch.
Operating system is extremely smooth and zippy, not to mention open and highly customizable.
The 1280 x 800 IPS screen looks great, and is especially good for reading because text is super-clear and crisp, even really tiny text.
The free stuff: $25 gift card for Google Play, free Transformers Dark of the Moon movie, some free magazines and music (this appears to be a limited time offer, however).
Cons
Very limited amount of offline storage space. There's no question the lack of an SD card slot is the biggest con (a rooted Nexus 7 supports SD cards through a USB cable with StickMount installed).
Limited video playing capabilities. Between the lack of an HDMI port and the meager storage space, the Google Nexus 7 gets bested by cheap $90 Android tablets in the video player category. It's great for streaming video to the small 7" screen over WiFi but that's about it. Offline video takes up a ton of space and good luck finding an easy inexpensive way to stream to a TV.
It's the hottest 7" tablet on the market—literally. The lower left corner tends to get pretty warm even with the brightness turned down below 30%.
Annoying screen flicker with brightness below 30%; most noticeable with white background when reading or web browsing. This may be something that doesn't affect all tablets, but there are numerous reports. Until it gets fixed, it's a huge con for reading with lower brightness.
3. Kindle Fire HD Review
Amazon looks to replicate the success they had with the original Kindle Fire from last year by releasing two new HD models, a 7-inch version and an 8.9-inch version, both in various sizes and configurations. This review focuses on the 7" model, but can be applied to the larger model as well. Aside from the size difference they are basically the exact same. The 7" Kindle Fire HD comes with two options for memory, 16GB and 32GB. The 16GB model sells for $199 and the 32GB model sells for $249. Both include lock screen advertisements at that price, and it's worth noting that neither come with a wall charger, which costs $10 extra.
Pros
The high quality screen. Text is very clear and sharp. Colors are bright and accurate.
Very good value for the price in terms of hardware and specs. Plus the build quality is solid and the device is comfortable to hold in both portrait and landscape mode.
Dual speakers are the loudest of any tablet yet, and sound fairly decent.
Can sideload apps, movies, music, ebooks, and other content obtained from outside Amazon's ecosystem, including competing ePub ereading apps.
New ebook features include text-to-speech, audiobook syncing with ebooks, and X-Ray.
Cons
Locked into Amazon's user interface, which is a lot more limiting than traditional Android tablets—no widgets, no folders, no recent apps list, no customization, no wallpapers, etc. Plus the homescreen carousel is rather ugly and is minimally useful.
The device is designed to be more of a content consuming device than a content creation device; all aspects of the Kindle Fire HD are designed to funnel users to Amazon to buy more stuff. Combine that with the complete lack of customizing options and it feels more like it's Amazon's tablet than your own.
Hidden costs. The Kindle Fire HD doesn't come with a wall charger, which costs $10 more. By default all Kindle Fires now come with advertisements on the lock screen, called Special Offers. It costs another $15 to remove them
This is the best review of each products i hope you buy proper ebook reader to you.
