My Sony 600 died at 18 months (insured) so I went to look for a replacement. Fortunately, I had finished my purchased books and was going to try library books. I loved the reader -- everything except the screen was difficult to read in certain light conditions and I had to use the light that came in the cover.
I really wanted another Sony, but when I compared them all at the store, I fell for the Nook Color and bought it. I absolutely love it! The contrast is amazing, it's quite easy to buy books, and the ones I looked up were the same price through Sony, B&N and Amazon. Plus with the Nook, there is the added bonus of chess, which I enjoy. I'm not sure if I can get library books, though.
