Hey everyone.

I'm quite new to the world of ereaders. Although I did own a Kobo for a short period of time. Actually I went through 4 of them before deciding it wasn't for me. So lately I've been doing as much research I can before I make another purchase. Some ereaders I'm considering are:

Astak ezReader or Pocket Pro
Bebook One
Cybook Opus
Pocketbook 301/302

A friend of mine has an unopened Sony PRS-505 which he'll let me have for $100. The only thing is, it red, not my favorite color.

Another option is the Benq K60 nReader. My cousin bought 3 of them in Taiwan. This one can be had for $200. While it's physically a very nice unit, I haven't had the chance to checkout how it performs.

Any suggestions from experienced ereaders would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
