I spend WAY too much time in front of a computer. That's part of the reason I am looking at e-ink readers. A computerized way to store, edit, and carry my books but with a display that will let my eyes rest a bit. I have decided, though, until I can get a reader that can do PDF support brilliantly, I will keep the tech books on the computer and just try to rest my eyes with fiction, classics, and the occasional personal development book.

I can't imagine I would go for a 9.7 inch e-reader. I already have an issue with the Iliad's size.

Although I would imagine it is hard to cut and paste code from the iLiad to your desktop.
