My main reason for wanting an e-reader is for traveling... no more lugging several books in my suitcase!

My criteria are:
1. Battery life (If I'm on a 12+ hour journey, I don't want it dying after 6 hours!)
2. Can I recharge it easily in other countries? Would I need some kind of dual-voltage adaptor if I'm going to a country with different voltage? (let's assume I don't have a laptop with me, so can't charge via USB)
3. Color would be nice... but I'll get B&W if I have to
4. Web browsing would be cool but again, I can live without.

thanks!
Jody
