I was really looking forward to the irex full size devices but after seeing their poor response to community questions, the high price, and the size of it, I decided against it. I'm now thinking of the DX instead, but might be able to be swayed back if the DX can't do what I really need (which is to read technical papers). Any thoughts from a DX owner (or irex) on whether the devices can do:

1. Can you usb transfer pdfs to the dx? (I don't have cdma access)
2. Can you shut off cdma? (battery life!)
3. I need to read technical papers in it, something like (for instance) this: http://www.cs.usask.ca/~cab938/icalt...leva_cooke.pdf -- is this readable on a dx?

Thoughts always welcome...
