A couple of issues with the Playbook (and other tabs as reader):
No sd card so not great for a library, can't read outdoors, maybe some minor concern about the future of RIM, more money than I want to spend for a reader.

You are right, Vox is not e-ink so Sony might be better for me, if Vox not good outdoors but does have slot for sd card. Maybe it all comes down to how good the browser is on the Sony.
