I have to attend quite a lot of meetings which often requires me to take several documents which are often a number of pages. I would like to simply use an electronic device to read these during a meeting rather than printing them all and wasting paper. Obviously, i need to be able to upload these documents via a USB memory stick.

I don't wish to purchase an iPad or Kindle simply for this purpose as it would be a waste of money. The only devices i have seen on the market are PDA mobile phones which i really don't want as i already have a mobile, is there anything out there that would be suitable?

Thanks for taking the time to read this any advice would be most grateful.
I live in the UK so it has to be compatible with the software and programmes used here.
