I agree with some points about size-- with my old Handsprings, I just slipped it in a shirt or pants pocket and took it with me everywhere I went, no need to debate whether to take it or not. The 300 is just slightly too big (and way too expensive-- my old PDAs are around 10 bucks to replace from Ebay) to stick in a pocket without thought-- it becomes something that must be kept track of. But it is an acceptable trade-off to be able to display more than format-less plain text. When the screens and readers start being flexible (won't break the glass) or roll-up is when readers will really hit their prime.
