Very happy with the Iliad right now - but I keep thinking about two things that would make me open my wallet again.
No. 1 would be a colossal increase in database capabilities - you know, wikipedia, imdb, dictionaries and other reference works by the bucketload, stored on the device or via wi-fi, all connected and easily searched. Anything that gets us closer to a Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
No. 2 would be near-indestructibility. I really feel that e-ink devices, insofar as that is at all possible, need to be much sturdier for me to be completely comfortable with them. When you can drop an e-reader like you can drop a book and nothing happens to it, that'll be a great day.
