Have you looked at Amazon's Kindle? I bought one a couple of months
ago and I really like it. There's some room for improvement, but it's
pretty good as is. The display is very good; I can read it in any
lighting that I could read a paper book in.

Thanks for the links.

I probably would have bought an Iliad if Amazon hadn't come out
with the Kindle. I think I'd like the larger display and flexiblity in
document formats. I think that we may have discussed the prospect of
the Iliad a couple of years ago.

I did look at the Sony product, but didn't see any real advantages
other than price. I saw some references to the Cybook, but figured the
Kindle would have better support.

The article about the second generation Kindle was interesting,
thanks. I wonder what Amazon's policy on upgrading or transferring an
older unit will be. g
