I'm trying to decide between two used ereaders.

Both in good shape, little used.

Being asked $90 for a first generation kindle

and $80 for a Sony PRS300SC

I mostly read project gutenberg and other free/low price stuff. Don't really want or need wifi capable, just something I can load books into. I'm attracted by the SD-card ability of the old Kindle, but the Sony looks nicer and is cheaper, if smaller. I'm reading ebook on an Axim 50 now, so either would be an increase in size.

Any suggestions? I'm new to this.
