If you just scan the book it will be readable but not great. If you OCR it it wil depend on the quality of your OCR Software and your skills.
AS to waiting, just buy one. They are pretty cheap these days and you can always sell it of gift it if you want a new one. I paid 374.99 for my first reader and just recently gave it away. I would have saved 1/2 and gotten a newer model 8 months later, but in the that time I read a lot of books. They might get a smidge cheaper and maybe a smidge better, but not that much this year IMO.
