Replacing an openinkpoted Hanlin v3...

Hello all,

I'm planning to replace my old friend for a brand new e-reader.
My ebooks are all epub format and properly stored in Calibre with every data available (Author, title, publisher, synopsis (most important when choosing a book, cover, date of publishing,...)

What I love on my current e-reader:
- light weight
- e-ink
- the status bar while reading (knowing your location within a book/chapter)

What I dislike:
- Refresh rate
- contrast
- the library's UI: only the file's name being displayed

What I'm looking for:
- faster refresh rate
- better reading experience (better contrast, readability,...)
- being able to consult the synopsis of any stored ebook (most important)
- books being displayed using epub tags and cover not their filename.
- a UI that tells about you reading progress (FBreader, iBooks style)
- OPDS compliant software
- choice of fonts and sizes
- light weight

What could be a bonus:
- Touch interface
- PDF support
- Bigger screen
- WiFi

Well, I think that's all.

I hope you guys go help me sort this out!

Cheers

K.
