Yoc:
That and not be closed source like the iPad yeah. That's my hope.

I'm waiting for a somewhat larger screensize and TOTALLY non-proprietary file & reading program loading.

Remember that larger screen means heavier. The ipad size is 10", almost perfect,
perhaps 11" or 12" would be better, but not something you could so easily read on bed.

I'm spoiled by 1600 pixel wide comic scans that just fit (widthwise) on my wide screen laptop monitor.
Is iPad 10" the DIAGONAL size?
10" is probably adequate for books text -- comparable with the size of paperbacks.

The diagonal is 9.7 inches, a (modern) comic is 12 inches diagonal.
