I purchased a Q1 just for ebook reading... having graduated from the ebookwise reader. With the extended battery I get about 5 hours of reading time, but am usually close to a plug in. I like the I have a 30 GB HD, and my entire collection is in my hands. I also like that it is so versatile... able to read all of the popular DRM formatted books. And since I read a lot while my wife is asleep, the display is perfect. I've read over 100 novels on the device and while I occasionally think I'd like the new Kindle, Cybook, or Sony Reader... the fact that I can purchase books in a variety of formats and yet read them on this one device makes this still the best choice for me.

I was the person who put all those books together several years ago. I also wanted to let you know that I’ve launched another site for students and schools that has a similar idea but for the new site I’ve improved the quality of the ebooks and have removed all licensing so anyone can download and share the classic books however they like. I’d love to get feedback on how my ebooks look on the devices you’ve been looking at too. Planet eBook - Free classic literature http://www.planetebook.com Regards, Richard Hi Steven,
