Thanks for the follow up We'll be interesting to hear experiences. I will follow up in the Sony Forum. Somebody might clock daily usage to get more accurate estimates.. We'll as I said already Libire does rather well with rechargeable batteries and has many nice Software features as well

So far I haven't run out of power with Iliad neither. However it is irritating when you use it for a long time to follow up how the battery goes down step by step..

With Iliad I hoped and still hope to get standard format documents readable (pdf's). As I understood Sony isn,t quite there yet neither. Iliads bigger screen should help. With some pdf books I get already better results on Iliad than on Librie (even when using landscape printing to two pages = this is the biggest pdf zoom you can get on the e-reader right?).

We'll see - might be I'll end up with a ereader sooner or later as well, if Iliad doesn't turn out to be useful for standard size document reading or even reading of newspapers (=this starts to sound like a joke at the present status) The ereader looks very handy!
