Any of the tablets are good readers when it comes to PDF's and .LIT. If you have that sort of money - you have a fair choice. The Fujitsu 1630 is a pretty rolls-royce of UMPC's. Ross |

HP 2730p...
Thanks for your response.
after looking in the store i think 8.9' is too small , 12.1 is better. when looking for 12.1 tablet pc , I read about HP 2730p What do you think ? Thanks again, Shaul. |
