I took the V3 on a 4-day trip with the family over the Easter weekend, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Trips involving small children feel like moving a complete household anyway, so not having to worry about the number of books to take with me was nice. The FreeSerif font is awesome even after reading for hours, and the experience was sufficiently immersive that muscle memory activated and I started to actually try to turn those non-existent paper pages a couple of times. :-)
The only major complaint I have are the occasional crashes/reboots. Once, the device rebooted after a waiting time of 20-30 seconds, the other time it was completely stuck with the red LED on, and I had to use a tooth pick to reset the unit.
Note to self: always have a tooth pick or paper clip with you when using the V3.
