Thank you so much for the responses (so far).

They make me feel better about getting an iliad. Thankfully, almost all the pdfs I have to read are online to begin with, so I don't have much of an issue with getting things from paper to a digital format. I also have a scanner/printer/copier dealy at home, so I can always use that. I also usually print my pdfs two to a page, so I'm used to reading tiny font. My eyes are still good enough for this, and hopefully, by the time that ceases to be the case, there will be a lot more options out there.

Two other questions...is the iliad actually a touch screen (i.e. for page forward/backward buttons)? And, are the next/previous and scrolling mechanisms comfortable to use?

Thanks again!
