The size, lightness, and battery life of the Pocketpro sound great compared to the ones I've purchased before. I've had an ebook reader since 1999 -- Nuvomedia Rocketbook, if anyone remembers that. Later, after a tragic suitcase-meets-screen incident, I bought the Gemstar version of the same device, which I still have. A dying touch screen, and rotting rubber trim led to buying the ebookwise 1150, which also still works.

It'll be a few weeks before I buy -- I'm hoping that I can compare the plus with the new-and-improved pocketpro firmware to help me decide.

Dear Jon:

One thing I can tell you is that the PLUS will come with all the firmware upgrades the PRO got already embedded. That will be nice.

The PRO has the 6 colors, a scroll wheel, and that wonderful size and lightness.

The PLUS has 16 level grey scale, a bit larger screen, and USB 2.0.

That's a hard decision!!
