Interesting post Towerblock!

I have a nook and my husband has a 900 so I've done a little comparing myself. For me--I find that I like the nook's default font-amasis easier to read than the default Sony fonts. Personally, I like it much better than the Sony font. We are all different, aren't we?

I do agree with you about Sony's operating system/interface. It's very intuitive and easy to use. To me it makes the nook seem very clunky in comparison. I especially like the way the Sony has integrated their dictionary support. One of the main reasons I bought the nook (to replace my Sony 505) was that it had a dictionary. Unfortunately, I find that accessing the dictionary on the nook is so tedious that I find myself not looking up words--so really no different than my 505. Now on the Sonys, all you have to do is double click on the word and the definition appears at the bottom of the screen--super simple!

I'll be interested in your take on the Kindle 3. A lady I work with just got one a week ago and she really likes it. I've briefly compared it to my nook--and I will say the K3 has a little better screen--but not significantly better.
