Hi
My two pennies worth.
Although there have been some technical books where diagrams have been impossible to view, in general I read using a eReader (in my case a Kindle Keyboard) because it works in all environments. Also recent improvements giving the ability to zoom helps as well and I have found no issues with more recently published books that have clearly been put together with the ebook format, most of the problems I have had are with technical books that are over 3 years old.
Regards
Pete
