I would recommend it except that Ectaco seems to have lost interest in it.

It reads pdf's without graphs and illustrations just fine. It has a five-inch screen, and that may not be large enough for your tastes, though I have had no problem with a screen that size.
thanks for the suggestion but I really want a bigger screen.

so I have seen a few Iliad for around $150 and also some Sony PRS-950. Also a pocket book 902 for $250. The newer models go anywhere upwards of $350 the m92 and 912. So at this point I'm thinking of getting a used reader and skip the current generation.


As far as functionality my main concern is PDFs browsing speed and if I will need to zoom in and out a lot.I just want something that is relaxing to do and I don't get frustrated doing a lot of work just to read. Also what about the weight, is 500 g too much to hold in your hands for a while?
