In the end, you should always put the positives and negatives next to each other and then decide which ones has the most positives and least negatives. And if it's equal, think about what positive points you find more important or negative points more annoying. In the case of the Nook vs Sony, I find the ability to highlight and note taking so much more important than the lower price of the Nook, my choice would go for the Sony (if I was in the market to buy a device).

Yes, I figured that, so I wasn't sure what they meant by that quick book scan. Could be they just didn't notice it, just like the ability to go to a given page...

It's a bigger screen, more real estate with better fonts. I like the Store better than Sony's store, easier to find the books you are looking for, nice menu layout. The Nook Touch is the one I'll be keeping.

Comparing the Nook to the 350 in screensize is stupid, naturally, the Nook has more real estate. It's a 6" vs the 5" of the 350....
