I really would like to replace all the books I have with just one small device, however, there is one problem: I can't find a reader that is able to display A4 pdfs and at the same time offers more than 10 hours battery life.

There is the Digital Reader from iRex, but currently it only lasts for mere 6 hours, which is a bit short.

And all the other readers I've seen are not really large enough to display A4 pdfs (you can only read so much on a 6" screen).

I read in the BeBook thread that you could display half of a pdf on it, when you choose landscape mode. Does that work? It looks like the screen still is too small.

Do you know any alternatives? Or will I have to decide between one of these two possiblities?
