I defiantly do not want any compatibility with vcard or Outlook (express or not). That would be a reason not to purchase the device.

wifi suport would be nice so I could go someplace wifi capable and get online. The support for a keyboard and mouse would be nice.

The iLiad is sorta almost there. But it would need some hardwaqre and software upgrades. Like an A4 (for PDF) screen, keyboard and mouse ports, the newer faster better contrast screen in A4 size resolution. Faster processor with better battery management. Maybe two batteries. One to run some parts of it and some to run others. Support for LRF, LIT, PDB would be good to get it out there for readers.

And a price tag of no more then $500. Less if possible.
