I was looking at all and then I noticed what I forgot, I still use my Palm to read, it sits next to my bed, has 400 ebooks on it in either mobipocket or ereader format, secure and non-secure. It also includes stuff I have gathered from the web, changed the format from text to one that I can use in the ereader, and sometimes the mobi will pick it up also.

Thing is, the palm is still a wonderful reading device. Now I know that many of the devices with the big screens are no longer produced but I am pretty sure you can still find them and for so much less than original cost. The other thing is the small footprint and small weight makes it ideal for a secondary reading device and will take mobi or ereader or both.
