I'd want something PDA-sized -- either a Cheap Ebook Reader, or a Cheap PDA that'll read HTML. I'd prefer something that doesn't restrict itself to proprietary formats, or, if it does, has nice, simple software to convert common file types. I know that older PDAs sell for bargain-bin prices these days; surely there's something out there that'll read HTML for a C-note or so.
Anyone have any suggestions?
