I am task oriented.
For many years I have been reading on small screens, largest of which were PDA style for the Sony Clie Palm. Last few years I have read tons of books on Blackberry's using MobiPocket.
Now, I have my first dedicated ereader, a K3 and a Galaxy Tab. Sure, the bells and whistles of the Tab are excellent and night reading is tres cool. But I just tried reading outside whilst sunning and I felt like that guy in the Amazon commercial. The Tab while quite slick, is also pretty heavy, though dimensionally quite satisfying to my hands in terms of width.
The K3 just works. Period. Light, even with the cover and single AAA reading light.
My fave: Overall gotta be the K3.
Yes, I miss the eye candy of the Tab running fbreader, but both are better than my Blackberry MobiPocket. Still, if BB had better multi-tasking and MobiReader for BB loaded faster, the BB would be extremely convenient and like an old friend to me as it has been for years.
