Thanks, I forgot all about stanza, even though I've got it on my ipod touch! I'll give it a try.
I must say the touch screen response is much better than on the Sony PRS600 and PRS900. But it could definitely use a few buttons on the LCD for when you are in tablet mode. For example, an ESC button and perhaps 2 or 3 programmable buttons as well.
Also, don't forget that the actual subject of this thread is not using the T91MT specifically, but using a netbook style tablet in general. So some tablets are going to be better than others. The T91MT is definitely a first generation design. I look forward to many 2nd or 3rd generation designs (from various companies) in a year or two that will be much better adapted to tablet uses in general and eBook reading in particular. I'm convinced that the dedicated ereader device is not my best option. I think a tablet style netbook sized PC is a better overall option and look forward to eventually finding that ultimate, affordable device.
