The OP said that they have not ruled out a Kindle in the first post but had mainly seen Kindles and wanted to know about other e-readers. Then listed a bunch of features that are found mainly on a Kindle, probably because that is what he knows.

My first post pointed out that he would have format issues on any device and clarified EPub vs Mobi. My second response focused on the features that he asked about. My third post suggested a Sony because it was internationally supported. One person suggested a Kindle. Two others suggested a Sony. Then some how the thread got off track with Kindle bashing.

There has not been a ton of Kindle promotion in this thread. delphin has a hard on regarding Amazon and Kindle is happily going off when he really doesn't need to.
