What's the best e-reader (A4 size) out there? The feature I care the most is: reading PDFs as if I were reading them on paper. The second feature I care the most is: easy way to upload PDFs (e.g., plug and play via usb?). I don't mind features like taking notes or calendars or apps. I just want paper-like reading experience for PDFs in A4 size.
Remarkable 2 is too small. Quaderno 13.3 2nd gen, seems cool.
I used to use a remarkable but these days I am happy with an iPad. It's not e-ink and I use it only for reading and annotating pdfs and taking notes.
However, the writing experience is great.
It sucks because I have many ideas for software which could use that pen/paper experience but i don't want to develop software for the closed iOS environment.
I wish there was a Linux tablet/distribution with good touch support and this level of pen/paper writing experience.
A neat tip I learnt about for Kindle recently: you can email a PDF to your unique "send to Kindle" email address and put the subject line "Convert" and it will re-flow the document so it's resizable and easy to read on your PDF. Messes up images a bit sometimes, but so far it's been great for reading PDFs.

Dasung has an A4-sized e-reader. I haven't tried any of their tablets, but I use one of their monitors.
