I'm going to have to disagree with the screen being too big for novels.... The large screen is the very reason I bought the M90. The text on the page is very similar to the amount you will find in a hardcover. I think the text on a 6" screen is often less than you will find on a paperback.

My issue is the bugginess of the whole thing. I'm very forgiving of my electronics, and my fear is that others might try this thing, and think that all ereaders respond to input this poorly; and they just don't. I have faith that a few firmware updates from Onyx will solidify the performance, but since I'm only using it as an ereader I am not as disappointed as other more demanding users might be of the M90 in its current firmware state.
