I, too, started researching before buying the kindle that was in all the news and found Mobileread. After reading up on all the options I, too, decided on a Sony. I like being able to read anything from anywhere, don't want to be tied to one bookseller, and I also like the solidness of my red metal frame. I just want a dedicated reader and am not interested in going online with it. I bought a 600 a year or so ago, but just upgraded to the 650 because the screen is so much better (hubby gave it to me for my birthday). I tried out a friends kindle but didn't like that so much of the device was taken up by a keyboard I would never use, and the plastic casing. But I'm glad there are so many devices to choose from; if there was just one, we'd all be locked into buying everything from them!
