Funny thing, it took me a while to get the hang of things (I was actually thinking at one point, how the heck do I scroll this window), but now, I actually kind of like the way it works, and am to the point I am not often inadvertently clicking things.

Weirdest thing, and the thing that points out there will never be one device for everyone, I have a number of coworkers who love the look of this thing (won't be surprised to see some order them), but the general thought is they all wish the screens were a little bigger (the rotate to landscape on e-ink is the other big want from them). The ideal size would be about the same as an 8.5x11 in sheet of paper, at least in my peer group.

Granted that group has different uses, and even though I love this, I will probably end up with a 6" for fiction paperback style books at one point, since this is a little large for the exercise bike. In my ideal world, I would have a larger one of these, and a dual e-ink/mirasol screen 6" device, esp if they could communicate with each other over wireless (bookmarks, location in book, etc).
