LOL! My wife reads much more than me, but she prefers paper (too bad.)

I think the 1150 is the best available for us right now (considering our budget.) It's bigger than a PDA screen, the screen is not high resolution but more than adequate for text (all I need). The battery life is very good, and only suffers compared to e-ink.

Here's a nice photo of the backlit screen-

The Sony 500 might be another budget choice since it's outdated, but I really do prefer the newer 505 screen. Between the 500 and the cheaper 1150 I think I would take the 1150 since it's still significantly cheaper.
