The idea of being to d/l books from Overdrive is one of the reasons I've shifted my search towards the Nook or the Sony. But which one is the questions.

Some things left out of the pros for Sony....
Sony is using the new Pearl screens so they will look nicer then the nook.
Sony is using a version of ADE that does allow for full justification and it has no page numbers on the right of the screen to get in the way of the text.
Sony is also faster at page turns
The battery life of the 650 vs the nook may possibly be better due to the fact that the nook has the LCD panel that does use more battery.
The Sony's new touch screen technology is very nice and easy to use.
The Sony looks nicer.
The lend-a-book feature of the nook works on a given book only once and only for two weeks. So if the person you've lent a book to cannot finish it in two weeks, too bad, it can't be lent again. So really, it's not as useful a feature as originally thought to be.
By not having 3G/wifi, you have less chance of making an impulse purchase that you may later regret.
