Has anyone read this article from WSJ blogs?

It was also covered on TeleRead:

I want one. I have lots of eReader files from my Palm days. They work better than I expected on my laptop, but still, I want a real portable ereader. Waah!
I'm still keeping my eBookwise because it's rugged, so I can lug it around in a purse or bookbag without worrying about damage. And because it would make a good weapon against a mugger.
