Good points. I'm hoping that as the technology continues to improve we can see a larger screen version like the iLiad in a form factor roughly the size of the Sony. I love the portability of the Sony, but I find a screen that is just a little larger really improves the reading experience. I tend to think of the Sony as a paperback and the iLiad as a hardback.
Something the size of the Plastic Logic and iRex Reader may be attractive to the business community, but they're not good for casual reading. I tried the larger iRex and absolutely hated it for casual reading. Hopefully a middle ground will emerge for those like myself looking for just a bit more screen real estate.
