Thanks for the suggestion. I actually have an Eee PC, and it's awesome, but it's still too big for what I have in mind (I was hoping for something that would fit in a pocket).

About the iPhone, I tried the PDF reader and it works well for me. I will be mostly reading text (computer books and academic journal articles), and not magazines (where you would definitely be needing to zoom in/zoom out all the time.

I have other reasons for getting an iPhone as well (I want to do software development on them), so it seems like the perfect match for my particular needs.
