Tyler Cowen on The Daylight Computer

Tyler Cowen, on Marginal REVOLUTION:

I’ve been looking for a Kindle improvement for a long time, and this is it.  Kindle Fire was not.

This seems to be the best general reading device humans ever have invented.  Compared to a Kindle, the page is much larger, the color choice is excellent, scrolling is easy, and it captures far more of does this feel like reading a book?” impression than a Kindle ever did.  It also can handle all sorts of glare and sunlight issues.

I don’t regret much not getting the Daylight when I first heard about it. $700 is not play toy money. But I’m looking forward the next generation of Kindle’s and the Remarkable3 to make an upgrade decision next year.
