I personaly didn't consider the DX because of no reflow on pdf-s and it being a bit too big, when the lines of text get too long reading becomes a bit more of a strain.. So the conclusion i made was 950 now, and colour pdf-s and magazines on my macbook for now maybe a ipad later on.. or better yet a colour e-ink in maybe 2 years or so, once the secong or third generations of them start coming out.. and I can be satisfied with what im getting and what i have to pay for it.

Thanks Erik. Just the same thought here. I can get the 650 from Prisma/Suomalainen Kirjakauppa too for about 250€ but I was thinking the 950 might be better choice. I am removing the DX because I will have no SD card slot. The WiFi (3G) & 1" extra on the 950 is also something I need to think about, now that the price of 950 is 300$ in the US just about the same price I will pick the 650 up here without the wait.
I want to go away from ipad, PCs and the likes because they are really killing me for now
Why don't these guys make computer monitors with e-ink screens?
