Well, I was thinking of waiting for the Adam, but then I realised that although the PixelQi screen looks like an e-ink screen, it will probably still be refreshing at 60-70Hz (or so).

One reason I like e-ink screens is that they are So easy on the eyes while reading a book (rather like paper), so I then decided that I had to have an e-ink for reading (which the eDGe has), but I also wanted an android device with an LCD for surfing the web and looking at colour PDF's (oh, the eDGe has that too).

There are a number of dual LCD tablets coming out, but all of them will be hard on the eyes if your just trying to read a book.

so for me there was no comparision, it was eDGe or seperate devices, and now I have one, I'm glad I choose the eDGe.
