What makes you believe that?

In terms of the eink display, I believe they all use the same exact screen, which comes from same manufacturer. Talking about most recent devices though.

The Sony is a very capable device, same goes for Kindle Touch 3G. Actually, most recent firmware update brought landscape, a feature that I believe (without hacking) is absent from Nook Touch.

I think everything goes back to what type of titles you read and if you really buy those form the online bookstore or not, and if you are willing to crack DRMs, etc.

If you only read bestsellers and novels, any of those will suit your needs without any issue.

Regarding the new glow technology and if you are not in a rush, I would wait and see what Sony or Amazon will deliver before end of fiscal year. It may be better, who knows.
