I think my Mom will like it quite a lot.
There is a big brother to the ETI-2, AKA the eBookwise 1150. It's the ETI-1.

16-bit Color VGA, 10baseT Ethernet, Compact flash instead of SmartMedia.

You can find them on eBay as the GEB2150 and Rocket1200. If you ask ebooktechnologies real nicley, they might sell one even if you are not in the military or a corporation. Someone on the Yahoo EBW1150 group got one this way but it cost more that $400. I didn't care for the one I had, it wouldn't fit in my lunch box and was akward to prop up for hands free reading.
