Things that are important

Robert, I know that you said earlier that a dictionary will not be in the device out of the gate but I hope it is on the short list for the immediate future. File folders are a big priority too, but I haven't heard much about that. I'm with you with the lighter and thinner device (tho bigger and color are always in the back of my mind). Considering I have to add a cover and a light source, I want it as light and thin as possible, while still having a durable device. I did not plan to buy until December, so the delay hasn't affected me so far, but it would be a shame if you miss the Christmas buying season. Getting a device with a faster controller is a real plus, I just hope it will have wifi and possibly bluetooth when its released. That would mean less gadgets and wires to deal with, so I consider that a plus. I have "free" wifi where I live so that is why that is possibly more important to me than others. I could go for the metallic blue, but any dark color would do. I plan on having two devices. A 6 inch for casual reading and something larger that can display a letter size page for professional use. My ideal professional letter sized device would have to display Word, Excel and Powerpoint, while including a touch screen, virtual keyboard, bluetooth and wifi.
