I have the Onyx T68, and it's a pretty good device. Certainly not perfect, but the most flexible eInk device available so far, I think. I have Calibre Companion running on it, managing a library of about 4000 books, and using Moon+ Reader to read them.

It's not an "open the box and start reading on it" type device, and it does take a little time to get it set up properly, in terms of finding apps that work well on the eInk screen (many obviously do not). If, however, you're willing to put a little time and effort into it, the results are worthwhile.

It's not the right device for everyone, certainly, but particularly for those who want to be able to have a large library on their reader and use a variety of different reading apps, it's a device well worth considering.
