Are there any decently built, Epub reading, front lit screened, folder accepting, E-book readers (Liseuses) with decent firmware out there?

Please let me know if you find one.

I'm not pulling the plug, mostly because I need a GPS system for hunting, and I've already paid for EARL, but man, I'm not happy with the 4.7" screen. I won't use EARL as a dedicated reader on a small screen like that, I've tried on my wife's PRS-350, and I just can't get used to it.
