What do people do with their old ereaders?
I now have three ereaders, two Sony, a PRS 505 and a PRS 600 Touch, and the new Kindle. I really don't know what to do with the Sony's now.

I kept the 505 as a backup to the Touch, which I bought because it handled PDF's better than the 505. (I read a lot of text only fiction PDF's) but now I have the Kindle I just don't know whether to sell them, or one of them, and if so which one?

The 505 has the better screen, but the 600 handles PDF's better. Or just keep them as backups on the grounds that they are not worth much anymore.

Or sell them both and buy another Kindle, the 3G, as I got the wifi this time.

So far from what I can see, although it may be too early to make that call, the Kindle has taken my converted RTF, PDF's and epubs (I converted them using Calibre) okay, so it looks like reading them on the Kindle will be fine.

Decisions, decisions, decsions
