Agreed on PDF's. I have recommended the Sony 950 to many a person for that reason alone. And I fail to understand why any one uses their e-reader to listen to music or even audio books. I can fit more on my IPod, it is easier to control, and much smaller.

I never have a problem when someone corrects a mistype on my part. It is how I learn.

I think the conversation is much healthier when it is civil. As in, "You made a mistake here, the Sony 950 has a browser that works with WiFI" as opposed to "You are a Kindle Fan Boi who is pushing the Kindle. The Sony 950 has a browser that works with WiFi you idiot".

I find that most posters looking for help respond better to people posting why they like a device without the bashing. It is easier to read and not all that scary.
