I also had a pocketbook to start with and have to say I didn't love reading with it. I often lost my page due to freezing and was just frustrated with it etc. When I switched to Sony, I was so much happier and really have increased my reading tenfold. I just enjoy reading on a reader that just works. I have a 650 at this point but am curious about the T1's, especially since my Dad is looking for a reader for my mom and my dh needs his own reader. I know some of the features would be exactly what my mom and dh would like, so we'll see what happens the next little while to see if a firmware update etc. happens to work out some of the bugs as I think it looks to have the potential of being a really nice reader.

The latest one for my PB model is still labelled 'beta' over a year later and is unusable for the things I find important. In short, it was very frustrating.
As far as PDF reflow mode was concerned I gave up on it when I found I could only page forward not backward. It's possible they fixed it in later models but I won't be spending any more money with them to find out.
