Are e-book readers good enough for tech books?
I was wondering if the current generation of e-book readers (like the Kindle, or Sony's Reader) are big/high-res enough that you can comfortably use them for large paper-size PDFs, like most programming and other technical books? I've bought a few PDF books from Pragmatic Bookshelf lately, and it would be nice to have something to read them on that is smaller and cooler than a laptop and not backlit :-)

Does anyone have experience with this?
