I normally read using a Palm TX, but I'm really interested in having an eInk device -- but a borrowed Sony Librie showed me just how horrific strict DRM could be. So the iRex is appealing, with its open formats and simple file transfer (that was the other thing about the Librie: even if you could get your own files into the correct format, it wasn't simply a matter of copying the resulting file onto a memory stick... you had to use a special tool, etc. Bleah!)
