Hi there, Julon!
I am subscribed to this thread because I posted in it earlier (also about the Entourage Edge). At the time I had not purchased my Pocket Edge, but I now have.
In doing my own research I have come across posts from paula-t in the
www.entourageedge.com forum and can tell you that she appears from those posts to be a happy, helpful person who enjoys learning and sharing what she learns. I was excited to see what she has to say here on MobileRead, because the other forum is more about the nuts and bolts of using an eDGe and not so much reviewing the device for "outsiders".
I have just begun to explore what the Edge can do, and mine is much smaller than hers. But I will back up what Paula has to say to the extent I can -- it is amazing to be able to read on one screen and look up whatever you want to about what you're reading on the other. It is also very very nice to be able to immediately convert a web article to epub for easy reading on the e-ink side.
I have a Sony PRS-900 which I love and will continue to use, but anything I want to study is going to be on my Pocket Edge from now on!!
I want to thank Paula for posting, and was thinking of copying her post to the Entourage Edge forum here -- don't know whether that is allowed . . . .
The EE is not perfect. But someone who studies the options for months, and is pleased with her eventual decision, is entitled to show her pleasure!
Also, I may have been instrumental in introducing Paula to the MR forum, as I posted a link (on the EE forum) to let people know where else they can find helpful, interesting discussions of all things ereader.
All the best!
