Sure, you should be able to zoom in but I'd like to just to able to see everything without having to take extra steps. If the Iliad supported Adobe DE then I'd be happy. As it is now, I buy technical pbooks.

Actually hope both Amazon and Sony do well since we are the ones who will benefit.
If there's one thing I've learned, there is definitely a need for an ebook reader geared for student, textbooks and technical books....The bigger screen would indeed be usedful here. I hope, tho, that amazon keeps supporting their original. Such a marvel.
