I just wish someone will release a tablet reader with a pixelQ screen (7"-10"), with touch interface and a browser. Just for reading stuff online (in color lcd mode) and reading offline (ebooks in eink mode).
Sorry, DG25! We will meet with Pixel QI in our offices in very early June and will get a sample. They are not ready to roll out panels yet and there is a lot of planning to accomdate that panel. It is proceeding. I expect working prototypes in October with a major unveiling at CES in early January and release in maybe February, 2010. The first product will be 8.9 inch with a 10.1 at a later date.

The 7 inch color screened "Lectra" is only in for trial tests. It is LCD but gets about 8-10 hours per charge. More will be published on my blog when the trial proceeds to yield results.
