Hello,

I was wondering if any of the "E-Books" such as Kindle has expanded to include modeling reference books, like the Squadron "In Action" series or the "Detail & Scale"?

I would think that it may be a lot easier to keep on the work bench than a regular book with pages, and you may be able to expand photos to get more detail.

Thank you for any information that you can provide!

What I've heard about Kindle/Nook readers is that while they do text well, but they do not handle images as well.  They are grainy & pixelated.   Apple iPads are able to handle images better.

Ed,

 

Thanks!

 

That was what I thought. If the format was suitable for our needs, I am sure that Squadron or one of the British publications would have produced them by now.

 

I guess we can only wait and see.

 

Have a good day,
