Well I guess I'll have to give pdfs up for the time being, since I'm not going to buy an iPad to read ebooks.
Yesterday I had an eureka moment when I learned about the Nook Simple Touch (especially with Glowlight - no more fighting about keeping the light on at night, yay), quickly cooled down when I realized they didn't sell it outside the US.
I guess I'll have to wait for BN to open sales to Europe...
