No....No...Not "bad"..Just side by side comparison. I went with the Kindle...and again I would much rather have the Sony...If you buy the 650 I am absolutely sure you will enjoy it...(Just dont buy em both !!!)

I wouldn't say super user friendly. It has a slight learning curve, but once you get the hang of it you'll love it. What iTunes is to my music, Calibre is to my ebooks. Also the RSS/News download feature is awesome. Loading up daily headlines to my PRS350 is incredible.

Yeah ithink the same in regards to why would people buy a kindle but then I remembered the power of sheep consumerism which too is disappointing see how I love amazons mp3 store.

People chose the Kindle because it offers better selection, better customer service, more features, and better screen technology. I'm sure your Nook is quaint and all, but you seriously need to get over your Kindle hate.

It is, and kudos goes to their marketing department. But i'm sorry it's just not the best ereader. heck I would seriously buy a Kobo over a kindle. no ePub, Pearl screen is nice but not the second coming you kindle fans make it out to be, and kindle doesn't have any deal breaking features, bottom line you bought it because you saw their commercials.

Go have a look, have a play with them, see what books you can buy then decide. It's your eyes, hands and reading habits not ours
All this flaming and fanboy rubbish is bullcrap IMHO! |
