I've been around computers a long time (I'm 38); I'm also a electronics nerd. I've been an early adopter for many things and I know the risks. But I want people here to admit that Amazon just announced a Kindle that's superior to the Kindle 2 in every measurable sense for a mere $120 more. 3 months after they announced the Kindle 2.

Bigger screen, more memory, auto-rotate, pdf support.

Face it, we early adopters got burned this time.
I disagree. I think you'd be best off waiting for someone else to come out with a device with a large screen that has ePub support and a way to organize content. Can you imagine 3500 eBooks with no way to organize them. What a mess. And no ePub is telling the world that PDF is good.
