A couple of weeks ago I finally convinced myself that I have to buy an IRex Iliad. I started using it with a lot of doubt. for example, I was wondering if paper is easer to read because of the black and white contrast as opposed to the slightly darker background colour of an e-ink display. I'm so used to my Iliad that I don't go anywhere without in now. But before you fall in love with yours, you have to activate shell scripts on it, just go to IRex web site and request it, they push it to your Iliad. after that you can start hacking your Linux based book reader and the fun starts. better pdf reader, more formats including chm and many more. I will write about my hacks later.
