If Plastic Logic would have release the QUE the exact same day as the iPad, at twice the cost, I would have bought it immediately.

It's that much better for my purposes. I plan to read 8.5" X 11" PDF technical manuals and textbooks with it.

I don't understand why the iPad is even considered in the same category by the educated people on this forum. It is not E-Ink. It is LCD. Basically a tablet PC with an Apple twist (sleek design, incredibly closed and limited use).

I really hope that PL didn't delay their product because of pricing. If it was buggy, fine, make sure you release a solid product. But don't run and hide from the iPad.
