Went for onyx M92, and I was pleasantly surprised how good things work 
out of the box with linux --- no rooting, no special hack installations 
needed.
Annotation works very well, too, as well as reviewing it back on Linux 
workstation.

The only thing that doesn't work well out of the box is 
hyperref-produced hyperlinks in the PDF --- the Adobe PDF reader shipped 
in the reader isn't too intuitive. Need to install another reader app 
for that. Another minor annoyance is the silly confirmation question 
whenever you exit a PDF --- back from the days when the reader used to 
forget the last position in a book, no longer the case...

Didn't need to contact the support in Israel yet, hopefully won't during 
the warranty period at all :)
