Plus, with the LCD screen, it clearly can run many Android/Linux apps... I'm willing to give it a chance.

Derek, I think my previous post was as clear as mud. I'm going to blame it on this cold that's still hanging on.
Anyway - yes, I realize all those function quite well as ereaders, but I guess I'm looking for the whole enchilada. I don't want another device that only reads a couple of DRM'd formats. I want a tablet or dual screen device like this that reads
everything. Unfortunately, at this point in time, to do that - it has to run Windows.
As far as I know (and please, correct me if I'm wrong, I'd be thrilled to be wrong on this occasion), Windows is the only OS that supports every DRM'd ebook format software out there with no conversions necessary.
