The screen should be adjustable between about 6" to A4 size, since I prefer a smaller screen while reading normal books but a larger screen when reading PDF documents. The screen should of course be readable in all light conditions, and the screen should also be touch sensitive so that no physical keys are needed.

The reader should know itself when I'm finished reading one page and automatically go to the next page. It should always be connected to the Internet, with access to a bookstore that contains every book ever written for a reasonable price. It should also be able to display all relevant document formats, and automatically strip DRM so that I don't have to.

And, last but not least, it should be cheap and available today. I suspect I may have to wait some time for my dream e-reader.
