I must admit that the new firmware release for the DR1000S tempts me to buy one for use at home (although I still think the 6" devices are perfect for travelling).

Could anyone comment on how good the device is as a MobiPocket reader with the new firmware? I understand that it now supports display of the book cover, bookmarks, dictionary lookup? Am I correct in thinking that, with the DR1000, one can add annotation to any type of document, rather than it being restricted to PDF, as was the case with the iLiad?

You still can't change the font in the Mobi reader, right?

Any other thoughts?
