PDF generated at: Tue, 10 May 2011 10:49:41 UTC Comparison of e-book readers 1 Comparison of e-book readers An e-book reader, also called an e-book device or e-reader, is a portable electronic device that is designed primarily for the purpose of reading digital books and periodicals. An e-book reader is similar in form to a tablet computer. A tablet computer typically has a faster screen capable of higher refresh rates which makes them more suitable for interaction. The main advantages of e-book readers are better readability of their screens especially in bright sunlight and longer battery life. This is achieved by using electronic paper technology to display content to readers. Any device that can display text on a screen can act as an e-book reader, but without the advantages of the e-paper technology.

Introduction In researching and implementing new research environments, hardware is an important feature that up until recently was not a central concern: it was implied to be a personal computer. Larger (such as tabletop settings) as well as smaller digital devices (as the PDA) have existed for quite some time, but especially recent hardware such as dedicated e-reading devices (the Kindle, 2007), smartphones (the iPhone, 2007) and tablet computers (the iPad, 2010) have widened access to information, by extending reader control of digital texts.

  • E-Book Market Recent Developments and Competitive Concerns
    MASTER PROJECT E-book market Recent developments and competitive concerns June, 2011 Rocío Prieto Julieta Schiro Master in Competition and Market Regulation 2010/2011 E-BOOKS MARKET Recent developments and competitive concerns by Rocío Prieto and Julieta Schiro Abstract The e-book market is starting to take off in the EU and several competition concerns are arising. Due to the novelty of this market and the lack of information and studies on the topic, it is worth analyzing the main patterns, players, and strategies that have been observed so far, both in the US, where the market is more developed, and in the EU, where the market is still in an initial phase. In both cases, a main feature is the pricing arrangement in place between publishers and retailers (i.e. wholesale model vs. agency model). Each of these models implies different competition concerns (predation vs. collusion, respectively) but a common aspect is that, to be able to deal with these behaviors from a European standpoint, a higher degree of harmonization in countries’ policies is necessary.
