First, let me say that I've pretty much ruled out the Kindle because I'm not interested in being locked into an Amazon product for the rest of my life and I don't plan on buying eBooks from Amazon anyway. I'm more interested in the various alternative press stores scattered across the internet. That said, here's what I'm looking for:
- supports PDF (reflow would be awesome; if there's no reflow, then a screen that can be viewed horizontally and vertically would be good--a wider screen would make it easier to read)
- supports the ePub format (most of my eBooks are in this format)
- has highlighting and annotating capabilities
- capable of sorting books into collections (a lot of my eBooks are actually converted fan fiction, so being able to seach the library by fandom is a must)
- text is resizable
- screen won't hurt my eyes
- minimal glare (I don't read outside much, but neither do I usually read with my lamp right next to me. Interpret as you will.)
- costs no more than $300USD
- decently sized screen (if I wanted to read off an iPhone I would get an iPhone)
So, guys, what suggestions do you have?
