I have an Elonex 621eb e-ink reader. It is almost idea for me, it has a good e-ink screen and long battery life (perhaps because it does not have any features at all, like 3G or WiFi)

However the software is annoying. It is slow to start up, and when I use Calibri what I see in the library screen are lots of folders (that contain the books) rather than the books. Also there is no search function, just a very simple sort by author or title.

Can anyone recommend an eReader with a very good screen, with lots of contrast, and excellent software.

It must be able to read ePub and PDF.

Thanks
