Thanks. I'd happily carry around a 12" e-Ink device if there was one.
For my eyes e-Ink is like a tall glass of cold ice water on a 45C day.
My wife is going to grad school and we ride the bus together part of the way in the mornings. She's got a LE1600 Tablet PC out studying and I've got the iLiad out. Its like the old Apple 17" PowerBook ads because she's 140cm/45Kg and I'm 180cm/120Kg.
She casts covetous eyes on the iLiad but the lack of production software, production power management, and the LE1600's audio recording ability keep her hands off it.
Personally I see the iLiad as a wonderful potential tool for the legally blind and look forward to producing tools to help enable that market for it.
