The iPad is around $600. I mentioned in my op that my budget is limited to $200. Even if I did have the money I wouldn't go by an iPad for several very significant reasons. Any back-lit display is very hard on the eyes for extended viewing. Even with my relatively large 26" monitor I find that I can't be at my PC for very long, certainly not long enough to read a book.

My PDF docs don't have to display perfect. I don't expect them to look as nice as on my PC. Just as long as the text is readable and I can navigate them relatively easily.

Anyone else want to chime in?
