The sony reader was close, but in order to justify it, it really has to replace my magazines and my notepad that I take notes on. That's why I was so interested in the iliad in the first place is that it would free up the space in the laptop bag to justify carrying it around. That's why I'm more than a little bummed about it's battery life.

Anyhow, I'm awfully glad there's forums like these to make sure I have the information I need to not shell out $600 on something that doesn't do what I expect it does. Thank you all.

Now back to waiting for someone to answer my call for the perfect e-paper device.
