I don't think so, this might kill big screeners, but I will not be buying iPad, for a simple reason that it needs laptop bag (or man purse) to carry around. It's not mobile enough for mobile reading. I am seriously considering sony 900 or just anounced today (what a coincidence!) archos 7. Seven inch is the biggest I can consider for carrying with me.
For big documents when and if I need them, my laptop will do just fine. Fact is I read 9 fiction for 1 technical. So compactness will win with me anytime. Hate the bezel for same reason. Learn2hold the edge.
