If I was to take my ebooks and read them only withmy computer, I'd have two choices. My computer or the laptop. If I went anyplace where that was not feasible, I would have to stop reading my ebooks. With my 505, I can take my ebook and move along. I use public transport when I go into town and being able to take along my ebooks is quite nice.

Have you actually seen an eink based reader? Go to Borders and have a look at the 505. The screen is the same as used on the Kindle and the Gen3 so you'll get an idea of how they'll both look.
