  • PDF, HTML, RTF
  • Developer SDK I want to develop a nice interface to some document-management-systems and document-annotation-databases

  • CF or SD-Card Support Gimmegimmegimme storage. Some of those technical papers are big
  • USB-Client or Ethernet Port PC-interface when you have no WiFi ready
  • Bookmark- and Dictionary-Support in the reader Please!
  • Able to switch off Wifi, Card-Reader, Touchscreen, etc and switch down CPU More Battery if you only need to read
  • Zoom-Function and Font-Size adaptable For those small annotations below images

Nice to haves
  • UMTS/GPRS/Edge or similar Travelling
  • Reader software that can be switched to another (e.g. Mobipocket - eReader - ...) Okay. Only one DRM per device? No prob, I can switch
  • USB-Host-Port USB-Sticks
  • Software to use the reader as secondary display and touchscreen - e.g. VGA-IN and USB-Out That would be awesome
  • Audio Out Only one device to take along
