For pure reading pleasure, there is simply nothing to choose between the Kindle Touch and the PRS-T1, but if you have a lot of books on your device you'd probably be better sticking with Sony as it seems better with collections. The upgrade to the T2 seems pretty minimal, but slight improvements to the contrast and speed make it the one to buy of you are looking at current models.

If the new Kindle and Kobo with their increased screen resolution and integrated light is of interest, I'd second what elemenoP said, it'd be worthwhile just waiting a month or two for people to start using them and get some feedback. They do look a lot better than the T2, but do you actually want a light built in? And the specs and adverts only tell part of the story. Will the screen improvement really only be due to the light, will there be any issues with the light like the Nook has had, will the capacitive touch screen on the Kindle be better or worse than the IR touch screen the others use, how will the light really affect the battery life? Unless you are desperate, wait and see before deciding where to spend your cash!
