I've just seen and handled one of the Huawei Mediapad 7" tablets as described at the start of this thread. The screen is amazingly clear and sharp - sharper than most printed pages. It comes with Akido as a standard app so I was able to try reading the standard book and this was easy and OK on the eyes once I dropped the brightness down. Construction feels very solid without being too heavy. Likely cost in NZ$=450 so US$= around 350, say.
I found it better than my Sony PRS-650 on the brief trial read - that 219ppi is very nice indeed.
