Same here, I can spend all day working on a computer, but reading on a computer monitor tires my eyes out. I picked up the new standard size kindle, and while it does not do well at all with pdfs, it does a great job with ebooks. The Oreilly ebooks can be downloaded directly in mobi format, so they work very well with the kindle. Overall I've been very happy with reading ebooks on the kindle, and with the $139 price tag, you really can't go wrong. I'm still looking for a good pdf device, but unfortunately the ipad is the best device I've seen yet for pdfs, but its price tag is way too high for me. The ipad does a surprisingly good job of zooming in on columns, something I haven't seen anything else handle well.
