How about an eBook?
Many people are putting eBooks on a flash drive to carry them around in
their pocket. I used to have a collapsible dolly and a plastic storage
container to roll my books around in to and from consulting gigs. Saved
my bacon many times.
Now I have a flash drive. I tried a CD and DVD. Some people put them on
their PDA. This is very handy but the screen is too small for me. I am small
screen challenged.
