The Iliad is the only e-ink reader you can read normal pdf's on -- and you can also annotate them with the wacom pen. It does not take terribly long to boot up, but does have a relatively short battery life -- about 18 hours. I find it much better for reading ebooks than the Sony or the Flicker, though I don't like Mobipocket reader. I use FBReader, which allows you to modify the font, though not without a lot of grief. For me, the much bigger screen makes up for all its obvious problems. I'm hoping the IRex people are working on a new Iliad that is faster and has better software.
