I am lucky enough to have an IPad and I won a kindle in a competition last year at the Business of Software conference. Both of them get used everyday. The IPad is fantastic for multi-media access – I can store all my pictures and music on it and watch TV. The browser is okay (I prefer Google’s Chrome given the choice) and I have got used to the virtual keyboard. I have started trying to swipe my monitor screen with my fingers which shows just how inquisitive the interface is. But I do not like it for reading books.
I am afraid that I have been spoiled by the Kindle which has a much easier screen for prolonged reading and I do like the slick integration with the Amazon store. So I end up using both gadgets.
But which device is better for viewing PDF files? The Kindle has a reasonable PDF viewer built-in while the IPad can preview them in Mail or there are several free and commercial apps to open them. The PDF file format encompasses both those worlds – you can use it for crisp black and white prose or colorful interactive multimedia. So again neither device can deliver the knockout punch and I will end up using both. Which do you think is best for PDF files?
Do you need to write or read JPEG in Java?
We have an easy guide on how to write JPEG in Java using ImageIO and JDeli.
You can learn how to read/write most of the image files in ImageIO. However, it gives little control over the process.
JDeli is easy to use and offers complete support, so why don't you give a try?
