This blows away the DR1000S in everything except weight (27oz vs 20oz), and perhaps note taking. Large screen EInk devices may be arriving in volume a year too late.

B&N (actually eReader at present) have a beta stand-alone Android Reader, and the Nook runs Android. Amazon probably has an Android Reader in the works.
