Question Lcd/e-ink or both, for studies and private. got lost in options..


Hi folks, sorry to let the first post be a "help-post".
been reading alot on this forum, it is great..

i am to get a tablet, e-reader.. but i do not know what to get now. i am a student taking a bachelors degree, then a master in engineering.

on my little spare time i chew away about 2-3 books pr month.

first my need for the studies, i need a device wich can be able to read some pdf`s, check mail and web for logging in at the university etc.. therefore i should have colors.

but really would like a e-ink device for reading both technical and regular literature and have availability to get lots of books. same as i want a travel companion being able to listen to mp3`s while reading. no doubt i see the advantages a e-ink have over a regular lcd.

what should i get here, i`ve googled the internet empty soon and starting to feel bad for the servers..

should i get one android tablet(xoom2, transformer prime....) for all my work, and one e-ink(kindle touch, nook...) for reading books..? but really would like to get one in all device, and hate to be dragging to tablets along.

or should i be looking for the jetbook color when it arrives, since it is a e-ink with the capability to show colors in pdfs, mail, web and such? maybe it would be perfect for my needs?

need input from other users here, i am sure im not alone with this dilemma.. going crazy over this. not sure what to get.. would be so much easier if i knew what to do..

guys..
