My ideal reader would be an e-ink device that would allow viewing of not only .pdf, but also .doc and .xls formats.

The laptop, netbook and smartphone really don't cut it when you're standing outside a transmitter hut in bright sunlight... and 11 linear ft. of "tech support on paper" is hard to carry in one hand.
