Those who

purchase ebooks through Amazon

for reading on their Kindle may be curious if there is any way to export those titles to other devices. Fortunately for iPad owners, there's

Kindle for iPad

. This

free application

lets you bring your

ebook library

with you when you're on the go.

We all have questions about technology...why not submit them to butterscotch.com's Ask a Question feature? Andy and Sean dip into the questions and answer a few, including ones on iTunes cleanup, Android keyboard replacements, RAM upgrades, running Windows on the Mac, and getting your Wi-Fi Kindle onto the network.

Chances are, you've been hearing a lot about E-Readers these days. They're devices designed primarily for the purpose of reading digital publications (books, newspapers, magazines, etc).

As discussed in this episode, E-Readers vary in design and presentation. Perhaps the most popular permutation of the E-Reader comes in a tablet form factor with an E-Ink screen.

E-Ink is a revolutionary display method based on electronic paper. The technology revolves around charging transparent microcapsules suspended in a clear fluid. These capsules contain negatively charged black and positive charged white particles. When positive electricity is applied, the white particles move to the top, when negative electricity is applied, the black particles move to the top. To put it simply, these capsules can be "turned on or off" to display shapes on the screen such as text or a grayscale image.
However, the rise of tablet computers has created a new kind of LCD (liquid crystal display) based E-Readers as well – such as the Apple iPad or the Barnes & Noble Nook Color.
While each device has its pros and cons, the biggest negative against LCD based E-Readers is eye fatigue due to their backlit screens. By contrast, E-Ink closely recreates the experience of reading ink on regular paper, which lessens eyestrain.

Matt hits the Lab Rats set to see what scoops he can find. He learns about upcoming Lab Rats episodes on the best e-reader device as well as an upcoming episode dedicated to the BlackBerry PlayBook. Also, he previews 60-Second App on butterscotch.com, the show that brings weekly reviews of the best Android, iPhone and iPad apps going. Finally, he hints at an upcoming episode of Android Weekly looking at the top five apps for Android tablets.

On this weeks show, the ASUS Eee Pad we're dubbing the Transformer-top, hints at what may be next for PCs, Samsung and Amazon sitting in a tree and Skype gets an update but isn't quite what we were hoping for. Also, the lovely Kate Abraham offers up a killer Android time waster with Slice It!.

Andy and Sean get back to viewer questions, but instead of pulling them out of the email inbox, they look at butterscotch.com's new Ask a Question function, and pull a few questions out to answer...it's Askbag!
