I'm in Malaysia and the iRiver Story is sold locally while BeBook ships internationally. I require multiple format support, most importantly PDF, DOC, TXT and HTML. The Story doesn't support HTML, so conversion is necessary but that's not too much trouble.

I've read quite a few good reviews of the BeBook Neo and I like its wireless capability, although I probably won't be using that a lot. The touchscreen is also not necessary and I'd hate to accidentally scratch it.

The iRiver is slightly more expensive RM1,199 compared to the BeBook Neo with shipping at RM1,130. They will both come with covers.

Any advice?
