Thank you all for your valuable suggestions. I would like to use the device to read novels as well as my professional documents and medical ebooks, many of which are very large size pdf files. I have read through many of the discussions on this forum and am considering getting the iRex iLiad or s1000, which many consider good for reading pdf ebooks. However, the price is not cheap and in fact is more expensive than many of the netbooks. I am wondering whether it is a good idea to use UMPC (such as the viliv x70, which has a 7" screen and weighs just 660g with battery, which is not very much heavier than the iLiad). The price of the viliv x70 is probably lower than the iRex s1000 and one can use it for other purposes besides reading ebooks.
