I was looking for a device which let me read my faovrite titles without buying hardcopies, but with more mobile than lattop and biggest screen possible.

I found buy.com has Franklin Ebookman for $230.00

Anyone using this out there?
Is it possible to read foreign languages with it? I'm trying to some of Korean titles.
Is the screen big enough for comfortable reading?
What kind of connection does it use to move the files around?
And finally is it quite easy to use, ah how about the battery life?
Thanks.

I have read nothing but bad reviews on the EBookMan. I would stay away from it. For Ebooks I use my Palm IIIc. I find it to be a lot better than "real" books. Though I'm sure many would not agree.

Yes. My favorite feature is autoscroll. Though books seem a lot longer when they are 4000 pages. :)
