it has no e-ink screen, battery life is not 2 weeks, resolution is only 800x480 (480p) where as ebook readers with e-ink screen have an 800x600 resolution.

It's a good mini netbook, but I would prefer an Asus EeePc 901, has a larger screen and has more items like USB ports, even faster processor, more ram(though lower battery life), and more diskspace. It also has XP installed (Linux free and/or optional, drivers free online).

It might be me, but an electronic book device for me needs to have lots of battery life (just like a notebook or any electronic device)... I remember playing my first gameboy for several days before the battery got empty.

Ow, and Chippy, nice to see you here too!
