I have Nook (6" screen) and Sony 950 (7" screen). Both nice readers, but I totally prefer the Sony because of the larger screen and better book organization. Fewer page turns, more text, it just involves me more in the reading experience. It is also lighter in weight than the Nook, so more comfortable that way as well. And the touchscreen and battery life of the Sony is just superior to the Nook1E's LCD touchscreen/e-ink combo.
Do I still use the Nook? Yes. It can be handy sometimes to have one book open on Nook and another open on Sony for ease of switching between books. It also gives me a reader to use on those occasions that I have to give the Sony a charge. Or if I'm going some place where I don't feel like risking carrying the more expensive and harder to find Sony. The original Nook also will do better in the kitchen or poolside in a ZipLoc baggie. And I use it to receive/read a lot of free BN.com books. That is probably it's primary use at the moment. My serious reading is mostly done on the Sony now.
I like having both... two readers gives a nice, secure feeling... if one went down or were broken, I'd still have access to all my ebooks.
