Both will fit within your budget, and the prices are coming down..

Haven't noticed that at all, except for import from the US. Even the Sony's are at the same price as last year.

I can't read more then one book, so having thousands of books available is not needed.

I like the SD card as I find it often easier to put books on it. I have an internal card reader, so I just pop the card, put it on the card reader and just start copying. I only have 1 USB1.1 and 1 USB2 slot open and that USB2 is often taken by my external HD. And my internal card reader works at USB2 speed...
About the difference between 5" and 6", before I bought my BeBook Mini, I was afraid 5" was too small (even though i came from a 3.4" device). But, after having used it for a week, I decided it was a perfect size for me. I now also have a 6" and I find the difference between them negligible. Maybe, when I grow ancient and need a huge lettering, I will have to move to a larger device
