I understand what you're going through. I spent the last few weeks reading websites and blogs etc. I narrowede the field to the Sony 600 or the Kindle 3. After downloading Calber and the Sony software and Kindle for PC I downloaded some free books and played with trying them out. The k4pc seems to be lacking some of the features available on the machine such as collections but both worked fine for downloading books etc.
In the middle of this quest Sony drops the 600 and is going to the 650 which takes the fairly close in price out the door.
A few days ago I found the thread on direct sun screen fade issues with the Sony.
So, the Amazon customer service which has always been great for me and mine, the wi-fi love the idea that if I find something on the computer in the morning and download it that evening when I pickup the kindle it will be on it with having to plug it in, the raves about the screen quality have pushed me over the edge to the Kindle.
