Kindlematic: Thank you very much for all the information you have provided. As soon as I get my device, we can work together on some improvements. The first thing I am going to do dissect it and see what I can do to make it better. I will definitely try to come up with a better PDF viewer.

There are other devices that will be out later this year or early next year. The Pocketbook 901, for example, is one such device with a large eInk screen. The PDF features on the Pocketbook devices are excellent. Hopefully, the nifty features are also on the 901 model. The model that was announced has no Wi-Fi, no cellular connection, but it does have an SD card for expansion. There might be other models in that same line with those features for an extra fee. I am sure that this is not the only company working on large display readers. Many devices will hit the market, some of them unannounced, by the middle of next year. I think in late 2011 we will have many choices of devices with very good support for PDF.
