I’ll update this post as more reviews come in.

From a medical perspective, this device has many of the advantages of the old Palm Pilots: long battery life, very each to use and most importantly (in my opinion) it doesn’t require a desktop computer. This means you could load it up with medical texts from amazon and not even need to ever sync with your PC.
