Not to forget, a good power management, possibly solar, like calculators.

Well, for me it wouldn't necessarily have to be e-ink. A 5-6" iPod Touch in a SwitchEasy cover would suit me fine, as long as the extra space is dedicated to batteries..

My dream ebook reader:

(1) super long battery life, it can last for months (at least on stand by!).

Is this achievable? Using NVidia Tegra processor? I read it claims: Listening to music for 25 days straight on one charge.

But again, I know nothing about current hardware tech of ebook readers. Probably it is already less than Tegra on power consumption?

(2) Scribble

That's it

Thats all I want.

Just had a flash. Maybe it's something someone mentioned before that just surfaced in my subconscious but here it is.

A series of tiny playing card sized readers with no surrounding bezels. You put all of them next to one another, set one as master and they all work together via wifi to become a bigger display. You buy them as you need and clip them together to perform the task at hand. When you're done, put them back in their own pockets.

Nice idea, but won't you always see a grid across your page? And why wifi? I'd say make a physical connection.

What about a foldable screen that you unfold to the demesions youwant, say up to A4 or A3...

Mine would be a 7 inches e-ink tablet with internal search powered by Google and free 3g network. Or at least a very low cost monthly fee that would include subscription to an unlimited number of RSS feeds and the ability to access web pages stripped down from videos and flash to save bandwidth and keep cost low. It would also include a light weight text processor to write some blog posts or personnal notes. And a web browser, Google Chrome for example.
