Dan Ackerman at CNET has written an article, “Kindle, schmindle…I’ve got your $350 e-book reader right here” where he discusses alternatives to the Amazon’s Kindle 2, namely netbooks, and specifically the 10-inch Acer Aspire One.He points out the display is not the best, since laptop/notebook displays are brighter than the Kindle’s, which was designed to mimic printed books, and it is heavier and somewhat awkward when used on it’s side, but there are ways you can still get decent e-book function
