Shop For iRex Digital Reader 1000S

I'm an engineer using IREX DR 1000 since one month.
I use it for technical articles, reports and books in A4 size PDF formats.

Screen is nice. Large enough for A4 documents, which would be barely readable with the other smaller e-readers.
PDF can be easily viewed with a good the zoom and pan functions.
SD memory is a great PRO, since you have large memories ( I tried up to 8 Mb ) and easily switch between several SD's.
Unfortunately is slow, if you open large scanned files you have to wait seconds every time you switch a page.
Not a big problem while reading, but a nightmare if you're flipping through a book looking for something.
Too bulky for reading novels and battery lasts few hours only.

Conclusions :
- IREX DR 1000 is the only good e-reader for professionals at dec 2009.
- Since I have to buy 10 e-readers for our office, I'll wait two more months to see the new Plastic Logic QUE before buying other 10 IR DR 1000
