Sony has ePub, ability to borrow library PDF/ePub and you are not locked into just one store for eBooks with DRM.
The "thought" with the Kindles was that you HAD to buy books from Amazon in order to read from the Kindle. Just saying that is not true. There are many other ways and places to get books for the Kindle. Not the least of which are drm free ebooks that you convert with Calibre.

No arguments that Sony does have a larger selection of drm'd stores that one can purchase from. Also, the Library feature is a huge plus if one is looking for that.

I have found that for ebooks that I have looked to purchase, Amazon usually has the cheapest price anyway. I have yet to look for an ebook that Amazon did not sell in a Kindle version. The only issue would be removing drm. I understand the epub version is easier to do it with.

Short of needing the Library feature, you really can't go wrong with a Nook, Sony or Kindle, imho.
