lol, still trying to justify that the Kindle is a good deal when in all actuality it's just an ugly device used to whore out Amazon's wares. Seriously, who needs a "book" with wifi or how many people have actually written in their paperback books before for anything meaningful and what are you going to "search for" in a paperback book? A few of the big selling points for the Kindle. People who have used it knows there's a redraw rate that makes browsing the web not too useful & it still has to redraw when you scroll a page too.

Sony had it right to begin with, less bezel/buttons and smaller size (screen-size is the same) & so is the eInk tech behind the screen too. There are quite a few other eBook offerings out there too, so do your research & better still, get a hands-on review yourself prior to the jump.

FYI There are also plenty of tools for converting digital books to whatever format you choose, so don't feel like you're stuck with the Kindle simply because they the "official channel."
