I would urge you to consider the PB360. I cannot imagine a more comfortable and highly configurable reader. The PB360 is small (for a 5" 600x800 screen), very light (5.3 ounces, less than the Sony), really accepts microSD/SDHC cards (careful with the Jetbooks here!!), is very well built, comes with a snap-on cover and screen protector, can be read in any position (display changes automatically thanks to the built-in accelerometer), recognizes a huge number of formats and is pretty bug free (ONLY) if you install the latest firmware (easy to do). The battery life on it is insanely long, the price is rather cheap and the guarantee on it two years. AS far as I know no other model on the market can match such qualities.

FG

PS: compare these with the Sony
Size with cover:
4.6” x 5.5” x 0.47”
Size without cover
4.6” x 5.5” x 0.39”
