The iLiad works well with both PDFs and ebooks (MOBI, or with FBReader many DRM-free formats). It biggest downside is a poor battery life, ~12 hours, and no sleep mode plus a ~45 second boot time. You may want to wait for: Mainstream iRex 8.1-inch reader for 400$ (rumor). This will probably have software similar to the DR1000S, which is a significant improvement in some ways over the iLiad.
