Do you have/have you thought of a smartphone? I have a phone with a 4-inch screen that runs the Kindle app. It syncs with my Kindle so I don't have to keep track of pages, etc.

I think the Kindle 3 is small enough to take almost anywhere, but I think a smaller ebook reader would be a bit 'in between' (as in not as convenient as a smartphone and not as good as a proper reader).

Of course, I don't use my phone for any heavy duty reading as the screen is smallish and I don't like staring at the backlit screen for too long, but it's great for convenience when I want to read but don't have my Kindle with me.
