Hm... I'm suprised no one mentioned "true" standby as a feature request for the next reader. As astra said, the standby we have is basically a hold button that blanks the screen too. The reader still consumes power.

I want the next reader to have a true standby mode that actually powers it off (and I'm not talking about a 3 min long boot up). I'm puzzled why they didn't do this for the current versions... just park everything in RAM + the processor register context to it's solid-state memory and voilą, real standby mode. This would do wonders for battery life.

And a dictionary would be lovely, too. But no integrated keyboard, a touchscreen would be much better.

Also, the number one request: FOLDER SUPPORT! Would give up everything for that.
