Thanks for this video. As much as I love my nook, I would definitely get this product. Any word on availability?

All in one solution...
You can read, see movies, use like cell phone... too bad it has no small printer and
car alarm system inside. I think it will be the next step.

Well, to be serious a good ebook reader must have a PERFECT screen, simple interface and most popular formats support. That's It! All other features just make your eBook reader more expenisve and usually unuseful.

The thought that immediately sprang to mind?

"Awkward to use."

The more that I look at these "soon to be released" devices the more I understand that I will NEVER find a single device to suit my needs.

To me, a 6 inch reader is just fine. But a 5 inch reader would be more portable.

But I need an 8 to 9 inch reader for wiring diagrams and manuals.

Color for wiring diagrams would be best.

Being able to hop on the internet to download same would be fantastic.

Anyone know of a reader that weighs about 2 ounces, can unfold to poster size, has color, can make phone calls, has instant on and instant internet access?

P. S. - And cheaper than dirt.
