MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Should I buy an eBook reader? If so, according to my needs, which one?

You all have been very helpful. So, I guess an eBook reader isn't what I need! I tend to distrust software that converts PDF into other formats. So I guess the best options are:
1)Asus EEE PC (7in screen but I can run Adobe Reader and zoom/pan)
2)Just get used to my Zaurus SL-5500 using QPDF, which has a 320x240 screen but can zoom/pan.

The only eReader that does what I want is the iLiad, which is outside my budget, and still wouldn't that much better than using my Zaurus.

Any other suggestions/alternatives?
