Actually I like the larger format for reading, it's one of the advantages some of the PC apps have - speaking of peanut reader as the best example - is the ability to display 2 pages at once. I like the feel like I'm sitting down in front of an open paperback novel.

I like to 'turn' pages rather then scroll my books. As a matter of fact that's two of the features I don't like about FBReader, No 2 page view option and no mouse based next page.

Flip this thing sideways, load up the PC version of peanut reader (ce version works different) and I'd have an extremely comfortable reading experience. If I had the $1000 it's what I would choose to do with the irex model.
