I should think the "perfect" device would depend on your needs. No one device fits everyones need.

I just want to read books, and be able to tuck it into my purse, etc.

A college student, on the other hand, would find an e-book reader practically useless without the ability to read charts, tables, diagrams, etc. They would also prefer a larger size.

Some may want all the bells and whistles, some, like me, just want to download books.

Eventually, I think there will be models to address these needs, at an affordable price, but I hope all will come with replaceable batteries and an SD card slot.

How arrogant of a company to feel they know how much space on an e-book reader an entire consumer community needs.
