Yes, I want a two-page thing -- because I want to have the
things I read on one side and the things I write on the
other, obviously.  Also of course I want to be able to load
various formats, including PDF and DjVu, from my computer by
USB cable, not only download the latest Amazon blockbuster
novels hideously priced.

I agree the iRex is hideously priced, and two reviews said
the hardware was fragile too.  I will have to have the
screen on my kid's
Nintendo DS replaced for the equivalent of € 80. 'Tis
cracked they say, though I can't *see* any crack.  I guess
he sat on it one time too many!
