You can also use real Adobe Acrobat Reader to view PDF's, including the DRM versions the iLiad can't handle. Plus the Samsung rocks a real hard drive with tons of space (compared to an iLiad) for ebooks, tunes, movies, TV, MathLab or Mathmatica etc...

umpcportal points to someone who ordered a Q1U with extended battery in the US for $800. This will also run MobiPocket Reader and FBReader (assuming Vista does not screw up the XP versions). The real battery life won't be known until these get in the hands of users, but the 600 MHz version with extended battery should last a relatively long time.
