Probably because I love my current Sony

I just think the new Sonys are overpriced compared to the Nook and Kindle.

I can't use the Nook's tiny LCD screen...no matter how hard I concentrate, I keep selecting the wrong options because it has a capacitive screen (and my finger nails get in the way of a direct finger touch). I am hoping that the new touchscreens on the Sony don't have this problem since they can use a stylus (unless it requires a special stylus and then that would render it useless for me). I also think the LCD screen on the nook is a waste of space - I really don't want anything bigger than my PRS-505 which fits perfectly/invisibly in my handbags.

And yes, if I buy a new reader at this point, I'll want the Pearl screen. The other option would be if I found a reliable used reader under $100.
