Could you sit down with one of his books and read it on an iPad or kindle?

I'm not sure, I've never had a kindle (and don't do Apple products). I'm pretty sure I'd enjoy a real book more though. I'm getting the kindle because it would make importing English language books here in Italy a lot faster and cheaper.

I can't deal with the glare for the length of a book read, just doesn't feel as comfortable.
