Re: [iPad] Reading books on the iPad versus the Kindle?

 



Right, and most web sites don't do reflowing.  Therefore, all parts of most web pages will be smaller on a smaller screen.  You can magnify elements - text, photos - by pinching out or double-tapping, but that will push everything else off screen.  Think a glass magnifier:  when you're holding the magnifying glass over a portion of a text you're reading, you have to move the glass to the right to read to the end of the line.  Same on a computer screen.

Those images were from the Kindle App running on my iPad1
So it's the application, not the platform, that determines this.
