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?
I couldn't measure it but I also thought the Sony had a better screen than the Kindles I saw. it just seemed that the black was blacker, or something like that. It just felt easier to read but I can't pinpoint the reason. The letters popped out more.
