AHM, I vote for the JBL because I have been so happy with mine over the past eleven months.

With the new firmware, the JBL does a great job with pdf reflow. It reads three DRMs - ADE, eReader and B&N. It reads most formats, including ePub, mobi and rtf. It does not have an internal clock, so library books can be borrowed without time constraint.

And because it uses four AA batteries, the batteries can be switched out in less than five minutes. We all buy eight rechargeable batteries and a charger, and they should be good for a couple of years at least.

Last year Newegg put the JBL on sale ca. 12/13-15, which is when I got mine. I have a hunch they will do the same again this year.
