Thanks for the input so far. I'll have to check out those other devices.
Calibre is now bookmarked.

Are the Sony x50 series devices the ones that Sony calls the "Reader Touch Edition"? I'm not so sure that I would want a touch screen. Seems to me that I would end up with lots of smudges and have to be constantly cleaning the screen. Though I guess some people must use them with no problems.

Are there any lighted cases available for the Pocketbook 602? And how does it compare with the Pocketbook 360+ as far as refresh rates go? (I originally saw information on the 360+ due to an article about the ability to play Doom on it, so obviously it is pretty fast).

I wish there were some stores around here that carried those devices so I could just walk in and play with one to see how I liked it before buying. Seems like a lot of money to spend on a sight-unseen device.

I hadn't heard any rumors about the new devices yet... any idea what specs they will have?
