Come on guys. Let's be realistic. These things hold hundreds, if not thousands of books. When was the last time any of you were sitting out on the river on a sunny Saturday afternoon, finished your book and had absolutely nothing more to read and had to use 3G to download a new book?!

If this has happened to you, I say extremely poor planning and poor organizational skills are a bigger issue for you than your choice of ereader. That and the fact that you need to find something better to do with your time when you're on the river, at the beach, on vacation, etc.

Come on Jon. Buddy I'm with you on the whole crappy quality of many ebooks issues but this constant Kindle bashing in favor of the almighty Sony is getting a little old and really lowering your credibility with many. If you are so dead-set against the Kindle, why do you constantly lurk on the Kindle boards? Please, for all of us, go back to the Sony boards and sing its praises there because, honestly, I don't believe any of us care.
