For me at least, the idea of having an entire library at my fingertips and not needing to think about which books are on my computer as opposed to on my reader was really important. The truth is, the Sony works fine for a large library. It's just when I want to add to said library that it does a really bad job. Until PRS+ comes out for the 600 (at which time I'll see how it does with the stop scanning thing), I started doing updates just once a week, downloading the Sunday papers and magazines rather than daily newspapers (which to be honest were anyway a pain to download, even if the reader didn't require an hour and change to restart after I put them on.
