1. EBOOK READER

The eBook Reader is an electronic device that acts as a reader of electronic books (also called eBooks). An ebook is a book in digital format that can be purchased directly online. The best-known marketplace is Amazon .  The advantages of an eReader are many, among which we can mention:

  • the internal memory allows you to save a huge number of books in a single device;
  • the battery charge lasts a long time;
  • the average cost of a book is 4 euros;

When traveling, space management is very important and for those who love to read on the go, this could be the Columbus Egg.
