Compromise beats doing without. Eventually, someone will come out with something that will meet my needs without driving me bankrupt.

Done. I've been both too lazy and I'm still really evaluating the two.

Actually, I do that too. I have my 32" TV patched into the HDI output on my computer (video, no audio; I get my audio from a separate sound system patched into the multi channel audio output on my computer). I can read regular e-books using calibre's built in reader or read my scanned books from Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard (I already had it) while laying on my bed. I can also do so while comfortably kicked back in my chair by viewing on my 22" monitor. I set the pages to be continuous without the space to avoid a jump to the next page if I should scroll too far down the page. This way the scrolls are smooth and continuous. I use the scroll wheel on a wireless mouse I keep on my night stand by my bed. My computer can also can play music for me while I'm reading. Reading PDFs from the computer is a breeze.
