Yeah, I've had trouble finding the Nova (not Pro) too. And any that I've found have been $280 or more (vs the current price of $240 for the Mars). The Nova was only other one that seemed like an equivalent to the Mars.

That's really good to know -- thanks!

Those are fair points. I don't read a
ton of PDFs, and I can always fall back to my larger, color tablet if need be. I can't remember for certain, but I think there's no accelerometer in the Mars, correct? So is there a software way of manually switching to landscape orientation (eg, for certain PDFs)?
