This is pretty exciting. I was quite sure I would get a PRS-900, but now I'll have to check these both out in person first. The lack of note taking is very unfortunate, especially if this device is supposed to be out next month.

The newspapers look quite good, but image resolution is still lacking. The layout is vastly superior to Kindle's offerings (at least, the ones I have seen).

I'd like to see the specs - mainly resolution and how many shades of grey it supports. It looks like it has dictionary support, but they didn't mention it specifically, did they?
All in all, I 'm now leaning towards this eBook Reader. It looks really slick and supports a good amount of formats.
