I'm with Harry. The first device I used to read a full novel was my Psion 3a. again sometime in the early nineties. (And the book was "The Wizard of Oz".)

The first device I used to read on regularly was my Palm T/X, from about 2005. I was travelling for about 18 months in East Asia and read a lot on that. Fictionwise was my friend. I dabbled on the various Palms I owned before that, but the screens weren't good enough to read for long.

Then onto a Bookeen Cybook Gen 3 for a couple of years and now my Elonex E511EB.

The Gen 3 certainly gave the best reading experience (until it got crushed in a railway train out of Calcutta).

I'm enjoying the Elonex, but looking forward to getting a larger reader with a Pearl screen at some point to complement it.
