Some love it, some are disappointed. There's no way anyone else can know which camp you'll fall into. If the money to purchase it is hard to come by, it may not be worth the risk to buy one.

I've noticed two trends with people's satisfaction with the device. Firstly, those who only want to read with the device are generally satisfied. Those that expect it to be a general purpose tablet with E-Ink screen are often dissatisfied. Secondly, those that love the device tend to be "glass half full" people, who are pleased that some things work well. Those that are disappointed tend to fall into the "glass half empty" group, and are displeased when some things don't work well. If you know which group you belong to, maybe you can decide based on that.
