I don't know how good your eyesight is, but you seem to be blind. Paper printing still has the best resolution BY FAR over any digital portal device. Why do you think paper printing is still in use today? If you look around at different technologies, many of them try to emulate paper printing quality. Isn't that the whole point of antialiasing technologies (cleartype). How many times have you put a book in your pocket? Can most paperback, nevermind hardbacks, fit in your pocket? You must have very big pockets if that is the case. Its obvious you didnt' look at the pictures of the device, because in reality it comparable to the size of a book, but its really paper thin. And speaking of battery life...hmmm, whats the battery life like on the Zaurus or th other Ebook readers? Is having AA batteries worse than having to recharge everyday?? All in all, I think you're completely missing the point of this device when you think the current EBook readers are better. I'll rather read a real book than use any of the devices now to read e text, but when this comes out in the US, you'll be sure that i'll be there to get one.
