It is cheap, small, light, you can take it anywhere, that is the only one I travel with. The Kindle, I mainly use at home to read books, because with the cover is bulkier (granted, it has the keyboard and the newer ones without keyboard and cover may be ok). Book reading is a much better experience on eink and the battery life is great. You do need to get acquainted with calibre and the conversion tools from apprentice alf, so you can convert the formats and read them in whatever ereader you want.
Hi twin sister, haha! I get more and more convinced that I would like to get a Sony. At the moment BestBuy has a PRS350 for $79 (refurbished though) but I think its a good one. I just prefer sony more than a Kindle right now. The case, looks, and all that. The only thing that is still holding me back is, do I really need an extra ereader besides my iPad? But it is quite heavy to carry it with me, and I love to read between my deals at work (insurance with lots of waiting time). Also, I feel so spoiled with the nice page flipping, back light on the iPad. But yeah Sony looks good. So we have more in common than our icon, haha. I think I'll get one on Boxing Day...
