There are only two things that could happen if a student choose to buy a WikiReader. One is that student’s will have an I.Q. of 200+ reading Wikis all the time. Two is that he’ll develop the lazy boy syndrome for relying too much with the wiki. In anyway this is a must have for students and young professionals who can’t afford an iPhone or any Smartphone in the market. WikiReader can access information without internet connection since the gadget itself will do the updating if you are willing to pay $29 subscription fee to Wikipedia.


The gadget runs in a AAA battery which is quite a disappointment. It doesn’t have the charging system which I’m expecting for this kind of device. This gizmo is a touchscreen if you’re wondering on how you’ll gonna type with this device with only 3 buttons. Now with all this features, it is readily available in Amazon with a price tag of $99
