More impressions:
I'm going to cancel the order for a leather cover. I like the silk texture of the included one, and I think it looks classy - like a Moleskin Notebook. I think the leather cover would add too much weight and bulk.

I like to read lying down on my side, and the Reader is more convenient than a book in this regard. It's easily propped on its side or on one corner, moreso than a softcover book.

When reading it's easy to forget that I'm using a device. By that, I mean its physicality doesn't intrude upon the reading experience, and the text is beautifully clear. Right now I'm reading .txt format with no trouble at all.

My only complaint is that the accumulation of ebooks is not satisfying in the way that opening the daily delivery from Amazon is, nor is there a tall pile to fondle and shelve.
