Hi,
Yeah, my brain tells me the DR is the best experience, but I'm worried about portability. I used to have a 10" Acer Tablet PC and that was pretty good, but still a lot heavier than what I'm looking for now.

I just bought an Acer Aspire One (9"), and my main Tablet PC is a 12" Toshiba M700 (1.8kg). So I have some fairly lightweight PC devices, but want something even more portable for ebooks! I guess the Aspire One screen is exactly halfway between the Iliad and DR!

I'm going to Borders in Oxford to look at the Iliad, and I've played with the Sony a lot. Just hard to actually get hold of a DR to play with!

Thanks all

Kenji
