I have been using a Kindle for about 3 months by now. I think it's great to read pdfs on it. I don't even convert them to Kindle format, just drag and drop and then turn the Kindle by 90 degrees. It has saved me loads of money, as now I don't have to print stuff out to read, I find it impossible to read articles on the computer screen. Plus I don't have stacks of articles lying around either. When I read an article on it I take notes using a dictation software. I also travel quite a lot, so it makes my luggage a lot lighter as well. Hope this helps!
I have friends who are doing PhDs they are not interested in, but it came with funding and they couldn't refuse. They say they just treat it as a 9-5 job. They go to their office (or some of them work from home) start at 9, have an hour lunch break and leave at 5 and don;t think about it anymore for the rest of the day.
I need to finish a section of my lit review for tomorrow, otherwise sup won't read it till after half term...
