You see, I owned my share of not-e-ink devices in the past - starting with a wonderful Rocket Ebook - so I know for sure what happens when using them outdoors, under the sun!
thanks again...

You should take a look at this video... and see what a *non*-backlit, reflective LCD is all about. It's used
especially under the sun.
Skip to about 2:30 in this video...

There's a review of a guy on YouTube who had about 8 or 9 eReaders, and the Jetbook was his 2nd favorite, after the Clie, which is a backlit LCD

(mainly because he liked some of the Sony's features)... but he wasn't even fond of the E-Ink devices, because they all lack a ton of features, take longer to refresh, and have that annoying black flash! Look no further than the Kindle, Nook, etc.
Anyway... if you guys couldn't tell by my suggestion and the video... the OP of this thread needs to add it to his collection, and eventually this massive review. It'll his $99 again... happens every couple weeks or so.
