Perhaps you can give me some help. (You see, my Drill Sergeant once told me that everyone has opinions, but he said it in a slightly different way.)

What's your opinion?



Don
I hear you!
Already thinking about a new gadget myself...
I'd go for iRex 800 - be it 800S or 800SG.
Way more advanced than Kindle. 3rd party development already has started.
You can read B&N's PDBs on it.
Touchscreen always is extremely convenient.
File format probably isn't a criteria for you, but still ePUB should be preferable to AZW.
The actual firmware release eliminates most of iRex 800's shortcomings.
Personally, I find Kindle DX a bit bulky. Given iRex 800's way smaller bezel, it's by far more mobile.
Kindle DX probably has had its peak already, a successor should appear shortly, whereas iRex 800 is "state of the art".
Hmmmm, I guess that's it.
