My current ebook viewer is a Palm OS PDA. It handles eReader, Mobipocket, Plucker, PDF, RTF, Word and plain ASCII text files.

It also handles PIM functions (Address Book, Calculator, DateBook, ToDo, Memos), word processing, spreadsheets, databases, and games, as well as playing MP3s and Ogg files and AVI and MPEG video.

I wouldn't at all mind a device with a larger screen that did the same things. It wouldn't fit in a pocket, but I don't carry my PDA in a pocket now.

I'm not interested in a Cybook, Kindle, Sony Reader or the like, because I don't want to carry it and a PDA. I don't think having the same device perform multiple functions is an unreasonable wish.
