I actually have Diamond Age downloaded to my ebook reader right now. I'm working through Liu Chixin's Remembrances off the Earth's Past trilogy right now, but I'll have to start it next! I tend to have trouble getting through the first ~100 pages or so of Stephenson's books, but have really enjoyed the ones I've actually read!

The first 1/3 of The Diamond Age is the best part of it, so if you have trouble with the first 100 pages don't worry about the rest. One of the most frustrating books I've read.
