Nice. Given the prevalence of sf in the ebook "darknet", I would have thought the Science Fiction Book Club would be a great candidate for this sort of idea, but they weren't at all interested when I asked them about it in email last year.
As I was reading this, I realized that the only reason I wanted a dedicated reader was because I wanted the notation feature -- both the eBw 1150 and the iLiad have this. Otherwise I think I would have been satisfied sticking with my laptop. I like the convenience of the dedicated readers, and certainly the e ink screen on the iLiad is beautiful, but it wasn't that high a priority for me.
