If you're handy with electronics, here's a source for the glass digitizer.
Um, so what is a digitizer? Are you talking about the touchscreen layer? I don't think I have much interest in buying a used item cheap, and then needing to fix it. (I used to do that with Roombas, then found I didn't have the time to spend fixing them.)

Truthfully, I'm more comfortable with an OS I'm familiar with, and being able to plug in the PDA and drag and drop via Windows has a lot of appeal to me.

I was thinking that the Windows Mobile machines might be able to run that new epub reader, Freda, but I suspect now that their versions of Win Mobile aren't new enough to do that.

Maybe I'll wait and see if anyone wants to give me an itouch for Christmas. Anyone know if the Kindle reader for the itouch handles regular .prc files okay?
