All kind of e-readers are going on sale, and it is so tempting to just up and order the ones I have my eye on. But I am learning from experience to watch and wait. I was an early adopter with the Kobo Touch and that is an experience that is both good and frustrating at the same time.

I'm keeping my eyes on the mad Christmas rush and the results after the season and the anticipation is over.

I'm particulary, at this point, strongly leaning toward the Sony PRS-T1. With prices as low as they are I am having to sit on my hands on this one. Even if it means I have to wait a while longer, and pay more, I need to be certain that I'll be satisfied.

One thing still stand outs in the reviews of said device: I have seen customers on the Sony site complain that the plastic case "feels too cheap", and that it feels fragile.

Things I am looking forward to:

Being able to borrow e-books from the public library. Yes, I can do it with the Kobo, but it's always required use of windows software plugged into a computer. I don't use windows. Being able to, after registering, just wirelessly borrow a library book without leaving my house or asking my husband to take my Kobo to work, where he can use windows on his cubicle pc, isn't exactly convenient for either of us.

To me, the Sony seems like a "freer" device, but I want to make sure I personally am comfortable and certain.

Another I have considered, and is not completely off the table for said consideration, is the Kindle but I prefer epub format, so that makes me less inclined.
