The information listed here has me wondering. Specifically:
Quote:
  1. Txtr.com is your central HQ for everything you want to read: Use it to store interesting documents, buy books at the online bookstore (coming soon), or discover free texts and articles in the ever-growing collection of available free documents.
  2. You may then select the parts you would like to sync with the txtr reader - be it news feeds, your personal library or folders containing the documents you're currently working on.
  3. Have your texts automatically delivered to your txtr reader using the 3G mobile delivery service. It will keep your txtr.com account in sync with the reader at any time.
(emphasis mine)

The thing that makes me wonder is that that sounds like an awful lot of storage they're planning to provide and operate. Storage may be relatively cheap, but it does cost something, so I'm wondering what sort of plan they have to keep it financially viable. Advertising? Some sort of user subscription fee? Something else entirely?
