Cut and Paste works for me. That looks easy enough and would be a big help. Thanks.

Spent time on planes, at the beach, in a backpack, and all over the house), DXG, and K3. The K1 is coming on three years old and works perfectly. No problems. So I don't buy that you need the extra protection that the Sony's metal casing provides. I am not a huge fan of touch screens so that is not a winner for me. I love my 3G/WiFi connectivity and I could not get that on the 650.
I love the touch screen, but I have been using an ipod for 3 years. The K3 keyboard is nice to use and I have no problem typing on it. Debating whether the 650 is worth 90$ more with no wifi and less formating options. I am kind of hoping Best Buy gets more in so I can do some in store comparisons.

I don't think I need wifi, but that may be like the dictionary, where I find I like it after the fact. The one reason people are for wifi is to look at wikipedia. I tend to do that with some of the books I read to fill in the background. I usually have my ipod with me, but not always.

I have never heard anyone complain about the Kindle not being durable. I have heard nothing but good things about them from friends. People tend to think I am crazy for trying something different, but that is nothing new.
