eInk screens are very difficult to photograph. You need to see one "for real" to appreciate just how good they really are.

I don't know about the screen quality of those 2 but I just played with the Sony
e book last night at Bestbuy, and it was incredible!!! If the Iliad or the other are anything like that.... If I had the $300 on me I would have bought one. So if you can verify that either of these is faster or better than the Sony, check out the Sony, if you like/can read it..... E ink screen redraws are reminiscent of etchascketch , the way it clears, but once redrawn it is clearer
than paper. First sight it looks like there is a sticker on the screen, like a demo, but then you pick it up and hit next page..... then you pick up your jaw from the floor, because it was on and it turned the page. E ink is the future, and seeing the sony reader in its dock reminded me of something out of Star Treck TNG.
