Were you interested in paying for 3G connectivity, or is wi-fi enough for you?
readability is a must, I can ignore all the others, since I am looking mainly for a reader, not a device that can do what my smartphone or laptop etc does

other features as connectivity, battery life, etc are just welcomed

so, as for readability, I may go for grayscale, what how do colored pages display there? are they readable?

I also consider its size as a readability factor, not a portability, or whatever factor, so I guess the bigger the better (or the bigger resolution, the better)
