I've got a SmartQ 7 and it's a decent device. I actually bought it to use as an ebook reader. fbreader is pretty functional as far as I'm concerned, but then again it was my first experience with it.

Library management is phenominal as far as I'm concerned, but difficult to enter and manage unless it's done prior to adding the books to the library.

What was a curse and a blessing was the ability to connect the device to my PC and add books. Sometime Windows thought the drive was corrupted and ended up screwing up the fbreader management.

The one reason I don't use it as much anymore is the SmartQ has a tendency to go into hibernation mode and then shutdown which causes me to have to restart the device if it's inactive more more than 30min. Really annoying.
