A big advantage of the Kindle is the ability to research any word or topic while reading. With a few clicks and a short wait one is connected directly to Wikipedia or Google. After researching on the net, one click and you are back to your original book page.
With the Irex, a dictionary lookup involves both picking up and putting down the stylus. That would be a hassle for me considering the device is heavy enough to often require two hands for holding.
