However:
1) Fbreader and Dorian both work well for ebooks - the keys on the side work well as a rocker (next)..
2) Pdf reader is better than the one for android (also evince)
3) Garnet VM - palm emulator allows you to run 97% of your old palm apps
4) 800 x 480 resolution screen
5) Full Operating System - not a crippled iOS or Android dalvik vm
I've tried various iphones - 3g/3gs/4 and android phones
Only iphone 4 comes close or may be a bit better (you have kindle app).
Android pdf readers suck. Fbreaderj isn't as good as fbreader on linux or ibooks...
- Actually they used to - the one that ships with htc android 2.1 works very well..
Basically it seems all the phones are ok - you just probably want a 4.3 -6" screen

Thanks for the hint - an Interesting mix: Linux on Nokia! (thought there's always symbian)
Linux OS means absolute freedom in app-choice!
There is also the N800, which selss cheap sometimes...
