Nah. I'm not going to use the Tab to read. Too wide in landscape, too long in portrait, and weighing in at 570 grams, it's way too heavy. I actually only own 4 books that are this big. The Kindle with it's lower weight and smaller screen will be better.

Because of this, and the pockets getting worse, I think that this time, I'll keep the ereader. Changing font sizes, which the Cybook also could, is a big plus. The chance of it being a worse experience than some of my latest pockets is quite slim.... And with all the free books on Amazon that I now don't need to buy anymore (many I wanted, but never got around to yet) the reader has already paid for itself before I opened the first book on it :P

Only a few hours to wait, assuming the postman is on time. Took a day off for this to be able to tinker with it :P
