hmmm interesting but I can already get a 7" 1024x600 device for $100 in fact I can get an 8.9" 1024x600 device for $120 and its got enough horsepower to also play all my videos too. (will let you guys know if PDF is readable on an 8.9" display)

looks like the $120 price is over but its still only $135 $2 shipping and I have seen it around $100 if you stalk them long enough

whats REALLY a pity is I have 4 ST3500s's and JUST NOW found out there was a ST3500x with an XGA screen. impossible to find now sadly :-) that would have been perfect :-)

ehh keep stalking ebay. I wish I could rotate the screen on my 3500 but this function does not work in XP (it was designed for windows 2000 so the drivers are not "100%" so to speak in XP :-)

but fox it lets me rotate so its not a huge deal.

does NOOK have software for the PC? does it have those nice PDF functions that the nook reader has ?

$122 shipped from amazon. same resolution but much larger screen versus the galaxy tab.

although its 8.9" thats diagonal and its a 16:9 display. 9" 16:9 is a lot smaller thank 9" 4:3

I wonder how many inches WIDE the screen is.... (top to bottom ie wide in portrait)
