It really didn't cover the features that matter to me:

1) Format support: If it can't read my books it's not a valid choice to me. Currently that would mean at least ePub (Adobe and B&N DRM support - unfortunately), PDF (with or without DRM - since the screen is big enough they may be readable), and eReader at a minimum. I'd also want Kindle support if I could get it, but Amazon doesn't have a good track record with dedicated reader support outside their own.

I figure Apple iBook support is a lost cause, so won't even bother with it.

2) File System Access: I want to be able to put my books on my device without having to load some idiotic front-end program like iTunes or the Sony Library (or even Calibre if I don't feel like it.) Books are files; I want to be able to use a file manager. That's what it's for. Simple drag and drop makes me very happy. Let me mount it as a disk.

Everything else is less important.
