And are the rumors that is will be touchscreen, and pearl screen true?

I've got my eye on the Sony PRS-350,

Now, I'm being serious, not a smart ass, I really have no clue about Sonys.
This is the reason why. And as you yourself stated, you have no clue about the Sonys. Which does not say anything about your other posts in this thread where no of them contributed to the OP's questions, but were all made on behalf of why the PB is best for you. You were not very helpful, were you?

It's all emotions, that's all.
Is it? First of all, you said said something that it simply not true. That's a fact. Second, you seem to have an astonishingly short-lived memory. I, one of the persons you declared to be cult member, was the one who suggested Pocketbook to you in the first instance....

The processor is an amazing 800MHz (!!) while my beloved N800 Internet Tablet only had a 330MHz CPU. I will wait to hear for other opinions/suggestions, but that looks like one fantastic candidate. Thanks a lot for the pointer!
