I don't want a dedicated ebook device. I want a good general purpose tablet about the size of my iLiad, preferably running linux. There isn't such a beast available for a price I can afford, hence my second-hand iLiad. Someday I hope something in that form factor will be my main computing tool, with an optional keyboard and larger screen on a docking station or something, but for now I have the iLiad for reading and longhand note taking, and an assortment of laptop and desk-side computers for other purposes.
