PDF isn't a dealbreaker for me... it's just my only real concern with purchasing a Kindle, since I've heard (again, rumors and stuff online... no one I know has an ebook reader) that there are some books only available in pdf form. At least I now know that all the readers in my price range don't like pdfs that much :P

The 800$ price tag on the Irex is a deal breaker for me though, there's no way I can afford that... though it is quite beautiful.

The sprint network extends to my apartment (mwahahah! For once, something good comes out of being spitting distance from down town Detroit!) and I know I can use the computer/USB link it comes with to put content on it if it comes to that.

I will purchase it with the assumption that I will not be able to use the wireless though. Cybook and the Sony (the only two in my price range) also don't have wireless.

Thanks guys! If anyone has anything else, I'd love to hear it!
