Am now pretty sure I've killed my Sony prs 300 so looking for a new ereader...

My choice is between the obvious contenders - new Sony, kindle orkobo (the basic one.)

I mainly get books from the overdrive library system, I don't really buy them, but the few I have brought are in epub.

I'm not concerned about wireless or a browser etc and I'm not particularly fussed by touch screen.

Kindle is pretty much out in my mind, due to using overdrive so much (am sure its poss to get around this but it seems a lot of hassle.)

Logic is saying to go with kobo, as its much cheaper then Sony - does this seem like a good choice?
