I love both my Kindle DX Graphite and my Kindle WiFi. I love them even more now that Sony has finally showed its new line of readers and to me they seem to be disappointing, so I'm glad I went with Kindles instead of waiting.

The Sony 350 and 650 do NOT have WiFi or 3G, yet they are both more expensive than the K3 WiFi + 3G. And the 350 is more expensive than the K3 WiFi only. I had previously owned a 600 and 900 so I know their touchscreens are a disappointment too as they require a stylus and were not that responsive. They might have fixed the glare, although some photos I saw this morning clearly showed glare remaining from some angles. At any rate, it looks like Sony has disappointed a lot of people with a lackluster update, and I'm so glad I didn't wait until today to order my Kindles!
