When going on adventures in the wild, has anyone ever brought some ebook reader with maps, city guides, dictionaries, translation dictionaries, bike repair guides, botanic guides, survival guides, etc? I wonder how convenient they would be to use.
The idea is that ebook readers are light and have a very long battery life, so having them full of informations relevant to said adventure would make them way more valuable to me.

@KekunPlazas I think the key challenge here is finding quality materials... I've got an ereader and I'm definitely willing to try it out and report back 😄 Only dictionary I've got is a pdf scan so... Probably not great to search through in a stressful situation

@KekunPlazas j'emporte ma kindle mais juste pour lire des ePubs. Les ouvrages que tu mentionnes (cartes, dico, imagier...) passent assez mal sous une kindle noir et blanc. Et ça zoom pas du tout comme une tablette ce qui va être image ou photo, du coup c'est compliqué je pense. Ça ne me tente pas en tout cas (ou alors juste en plan B voire C)
