Other e-reader devices that I've tried do fine with straight text but less and less well as the degree of complexity goes up. Many technical documents also do need a decent sized screen to work well with some content. The other advantage of using some of the tablet PCs is that you can instal your own choice of software. You have a better chance of it catering for your specific needs if you can run the right program, depending on the work you want to do with it.
The Edge looks promising, but there are a number of other tablet style computers that are either available now or supposedly 'coming soon'. So the ideal device may still be not be on the shelves yet.
Good luck with the hunt.

Exactly my feelings. But ...
If I can give to my friend something that is useful to him I will score many points.
