Best E-reader on the market?

Hiya all,

I've been so happy with my Cybook Bookeen 3gen. that I'd like to see if I could find an even better e-book reader. But I'd rather not pay for small incremental differences.

My priorities are:

1. Screen quality, I'd like if I could find a screen with a noticeable quality difference, like 2nd. gen e-ink.
2. Screen Size, would like a bit larger screen if possible. 8", 9" etc.
3. Page turn speed, I think that's one of the areas the cybook is a bit sluggish with, so faster page turns would definitely be nice.

As for formats, most my book collection is DRM free Mobi or PRC with 10% PDF. Calibre has been a real champ converting for me. I get most my books from Gutenberg, Baen Free library and Fictionwise, so I don't prioritize access to an online bookstore very much.

I'm currently looking at the Kindle DX and the Sony daily edition, but worry that the kindle has too many handicaps and the Sony won't be a noticeable quality/size jump.

Hope any of you can help me, and thanks a lot for your time and interest.

Cheers
