Hmm... the Sony, CyBook are pretty thin... the Kindle is a bit thicker but haven't had trouble holding it for long streaches... easier than a 12lbs hard cover.

Can I ask, is the EZ Reader as you are now calling it going to support eReader and Mobi or are you still bringing out two models?

BTW: Seems like plastic logic has a flexible 10inch display on the way... however they are doing their own reader and may not want to OEM the screens.
