I still use Tungsten T3 as improvised e-book reader. For long time there was nothing that combined the form-factor with the clarity of T3's display.

The T5 and T|X have a very similar screen and no slider. If your T3 wears out (which the slider is known to do), either might make a serviceable replacement. I also had good success migrating to an older iPod Touch in 2012, although if you use Plucker for reading on the Palm, you'll want to migrate to EPUB at the same time - that's no fun, but while Tomes was tolerable on iOS at that time, I would be surprised to learn it's still supported, especially with the Plucker format.
Plucker - now that's a ebook format that brings up memories of reading on the Palm.
If you still have Plucker files, you might have some luck using FBReader to read it. It apparently still supports Plucker (but not on android) [1]
