It hasn't been much remarked on, but the Kindle gives you lots of choices for formatting -- one. On the Sony 505, using Book Designer you can manipulate the font, the margins, the size, etc. etc. This means you can customize a book for however you want to read it (and read Greek, Russian, etc.). Nor will Kindle allow you to change the spaces between lines -- you're stuck with a huge space whether you want it or not. On the Sony, you can make it whatever you want. As a result, the Kindle has about 2/3 per page as is comfortable on the Sony, and you have to advance the page much more often.
