P.S. Are you reading and partaking in this forum on your PRS-500? (I've tried and tried on my 700, but it won't do anything....)
I know enough Japanese to get that without a translation... 師傅 (Chinese for master)

And you are highlighting my point. I have a laptop that can do computing tasks and internet surfing better than the iPad, I have a smartphone that can do e-mail, IM, browsing, etc. just as well as the iPod (in some ways it is even superior, I can do flash and multitasking and I have a full querty keyboard -- some things don't work quite as well because of the screen size), and I have an ereader that I can read text on better than on the iPad. What do I need another device for? For me there is no point at this time.

Sure, I would love to have a device like the iPad if:
-- it was a full fledged computer, better than my current laptop
-- it had a screen suitable for reading and computing/video/browsing

Then I could retire my laptop and reader. Unfortunately, the iPad is still a far cry from achieving that.
