I find this introspection about size very interesting, especially from someone that has had experience with a bunch of different sized devices.
For that same journey I also travelled previously with a 7” SmartQ and that was sweet under the same circumstances.

Presently I am obsessed with reading, not just eBooks (of which I have thousands) but also downloaded blog articles.

BTW, has anyone else installed Read It Later for Android and love it too? It is one of the top apps IMHO.

When I am too tired to watch a screen then I listen to music. So the video benefit of the larger screen is lost due to non usage in that particular scenario. The versatility of the Streak lets me travel light with one device. In the past it was not unusual for me to have six devices in my bag.

Which is why I am going to check out the Asus Transformer for home use only. It doesn’t matter if the 10” form factor is a bit cumbersome as it will be for couch or table use mainly.

While I could see purchasing more than one device, at the rate these things are evolving, I would hate to have to upgrade 3 at once!
Yes that could be a phaff.

Putting a positive spin on it, I have in mind possibly incorporating it into an exercise routine, like circuit training. Place the devices around the room, run to device one and update first app and run on the spot then, when installed, run to device two and install first app and perform 20 press-ups then, when installed, run to device two and .........

You get the idea, I am sure. Maybe Dell could use that as a marketing strategy, you know, something like ‘Streak with the Streak and shed the blubber’.

Edit
That last bit was intended to be light hearted, just in case.
