If I read mangas, PDFs (on a regular basis) or wanted to use an eReader for eMail, note taking or drawing, this would definitely be worth looking into (for the eInk screen's battery life alone).

Unfortunately the reviewers were so caught up in (to me) the gewgaws, they forgot to show off its abilities for reading eBooks. For a moment I saw the Kindle app (which had huge margins, hopefully they can be adjusted). Then, at the end, while showing off the lighting I got to see what (I presume) is the default eReader app, but they didn't show off its features. That's what I would really like to see in an eReader review – how well does it handle eBooks?
The problem with the review is that it's being done by GoodEReader and they have no idea how to do a proper review.
