For what I paid for my JBL I could find a Nook or a Kindle for a similar price, but what I really needed was a good pdf reader and only the JBL had that.

Price is an important factor but is not the definitive, in my case.

I could and probably will buy some "e-reader" like the one that Ken linked but for use as a very portable browser to use at work.

I just can't read a book on an illuminated screen. I can browse, read news, but longer texts (like a book :-D). I just can't bear reading on a computer/palm/GPS or whatever screen
