5) fast refresh rate and easy switching between books (I use my current reader for reference purposes and look up things across multiple books at once)
6) Dictionary look-up across multiple dictionaries- specifically technical dictionaries
7) Highlighting would be nice but underlining via handwritten annotations would be fine

I know what you mean. Real Estate Appraiser here.
I think there are a growing number of professionals looking for hand-held devices they can use in the field for both reference and the taking of notes so that they can do away with clipboards with paper in them. Maybe it is oe device with all the features or a combination of an e-Ink screen above for displaying documents with a more traditional (smaller & cheaper?) screen below for taking notes that will handle notes. I could see uses for both, but being able to make drawings in the field in the rain would be great
