Well, I've had my Touch for six hours, loaded it with all of my books, transferred the collections and am up and running. Yet....I'm not happy. In fact, I've already thought more than once about giving the Sony another look.

Why am I unhappy:
1. First and foremost -- screen is just a tad greener.
2. No portrait mode.
3. Had to turn refresh on every page turn on due to the shadowing in the every six page mode.
4. No tracking bar on the bottom. I would not have minded making it hiding but I liked having it.

My recollection is that the Sony has portrait and a very contrasty clean screen. Lets see how I feel after a couple of days. How is everyone else liking their touch?
