Aaida, I was very interested in the Kindle too, I live partly in France, partly in the Far East so I wouldn't be able to use the Whispernet. I have 2 children living in the US so buying content would have been possible. I always liked Amazon, but I do not like this 'exclusively US policy' they have adopted for the time being.
Then the Kindle is only in its infancy, I prefer to wait and see what Amazon will do next, policy, content and reader.
I did want a reader though, had been waiting long enough for things to get better. After reading this thread and others extensively I decided on the Sony prs 505.
I am very happy with it, there is more than enough content for it, for my reading taste at least, much of it here right on this site.
to all the ebook creators here!
My only regret: the lack of a built-in dictionary. The Cybook has that, I didn't fully appreciate the importance of that aspect.
Have fun deciding, buying and then
owning a reader. It's a great experience. Reading with many plusses.
