Reading PDF documents has always been an issue on dedicated e-book devices, mostly because of the limited screen size. The currently most suitable reader for reading PDF files is the iRex iLiad, which, however, doesn't fall under the "cheap devices" definition.

I see.
I don't care about battery life because I read only at home and I have no problem charging it every 3-4 days if needed.
But i do wish that the battery won't die suddenly on me and that it will be comfortable to read from .
I use PDF2TEXT to convert pdf to ebook.
If I can chage the font , it might be cool.
Which REB / GEB device will be best today ?
