No, I have no delusions that I can replace my wonderful 17" laptop with a 7" reading device. What I was really questioning is the 64MB of RAM and asking about CE in general. I've never used it and I don't read much positive about it. Everything seems to indicate that Android is the way to go so I am trying to get a sense of this from the forum folks.

I personally prefer to convert to mobi (which isn't a big problem for me as I don't own even one epub... but I do own ereader books).

I am a long time Calibre user so I have no problem converting formats. I was just curious about EPUb on the JE-100...

Thanks for your feedback!
Bottom line is this - I just want a backlit reader. I don't NEED Internet access but the idea of being able to download files directly to the device is alluring. I'm not going to spend my days browsing the Web or playing games so I don't need a powerful MID or UMPC but if I DO get one, it should work somewhat decently or I'm wasting my money.
I'm still thinking about the JE-100 though I emailed Jointech a couple times with questions about the new JE-200 but haven't gotten any response yet. It seems pretty pricey considering that for the price, there are quite a few MIDs out there that offer a lot more power but I still lean toward the look and (virtual) feel of the Jointech devices. I will wait for some reviews of the 200 before I make any decisions.
