I tried to read a couple of books on my Palm T5 but I found it rather inconvenient. The problem was that there was to little text on one page so you had to turn the page very often and I could not find a good reading position since you had to keep one finger on the page turning button all the time. I got cramp in my hand reading a Baen book that way. I am planning to by an E-ink reader soon and I really hope that you get more text per page on this device.

I like to buy book but I would also like not to have to carry books everywhere. So one good thing would be if you could get the e-book for free or very cheap when you bought the paper book. Also I have too many books so some books I will in the future buy only in the e-book versions.
