Ruskie and Andybaby,

Perfectly good and valid points.

I'm weighing up between getting this and a netronix 6 inch eink reader at the moment (eg cooler reader). In terms of bang for buck this would be approx AUD300 delivered against AUD400 for a cooler.

What would I use them for ?
The cooler reader - only reading novels and nothing else
The MID tablet - reading novels, pdfs (eg economist and other magazines), web browsing and maybe as a photo viewer

A lot of what coldsun says above strikes a chord with me and I am also a firm believer that single function eink devices (based on vizplex or something very similar) will be less than $100 within two years so I'm very tempted by the MID. It's just a question of whether I believe I can read a whole novel on it.
