Future of WotC PDFs: Unofficial Sneak Preview?

I just bought a 3rd generation kindle because the price-point dropped below my impulse threshold, and the form factor is targeted directly at my needs. In my case, that's mostly novels; a traditional long-form book format.

There's roughly two kinds of media we care about reading: one where page layout and position matter, and are part of the medium itself; the other where only the sequential order and page flow are important. Comics and novels are good contrasting examples.

So far, our reader display technologies are imperfect and leveraged with design compromises. The most functional devices need to specialize, and therefore need to be cheap. I need a cheap e-ink reader for long-form reading, AND I need a cheap lcd panel for magazine-style spreads.

Half-way there! :cool:
