Thanks guys;

I definitely see what you guys are saying. Perhaps it's not a very realistic expectation, but my perfect e-reader would have the exact all the functionality of the eDGe, but be 2 lb in weight or lighter. That's why I was wondering if a new model would be due out, don't want to realize the next month that I settled for the current model and missed out on the ideal version that I was looking for. Also I don't really want to be left behind should a future version get android market support. As right now, I guess I just have to make a decision among imperfect choices.

The ability to view PDF easily, and to annotate are critical to me, otherwise I would have settled with the Kindle 3G. Being able to take notes and journal are also very nice bonuses. It would be great if it's a device that I can take all my papers with me for the day, take notes in classes, as well as stay connected until I get home in the afternoon; really beats having to carry a laptop, a kindle, plus some notebook papers.

I have a couple more questions, someone here might know the answer of:

• Can the eDGe display the bookmarks/table of contents in PDF documents that are created in Acrobat/Latex?
  A lot of what I read are programming guides and HW system documentations each a couple hundred pages long, being able to navigate through table of contents is a huge help.
• Does the eDGe utilize the SD card as extra storage space for the library, or would I have to copy the files to the internal storage of the device for it to appear in the library?
• What about media files, can I also keep them on the SD card and have, for example, the music player keep its library on the SD?

Thanks in advance.
