I use this device. I have the 5" version (bought it on eBay about a month ago from Hong Kong). Added a 16GB SD card and loaded my normal stuff from the Android market.

Kindle is good - FBReader is fantastic. Loaded a pile of ePubs for reading into the SD card. Also loaded video podcasts and some music.

This is a really good size - fits in one of my Scottevest pockets and lasts a day or so on a charge. Android 2.2 is fairly standard in setup. Camera is good enough. Its nice and slim and I added a thin case and screen protector.

Have tried it with PDF's and they are OK if the PDF is a book. Not much good if they are of magazines (800x480 resolution is a bit low).
