I am wanting a new Reader even though I do like my 650. I have a nook STR that I got at Radio Shack's dump the nook sale for just over $20. I don't like it much. I'm just keeping it as a spare in case I need it. At that price, it's worth it. the biggest issue I have with the nook is the font handling is very poor. The same font viewed on the nook is lighter then the same font on the 650. Plus, there is space at the top that's left open when the header is displayed. The nook has some very poor design choices. Plus, the shape just doesn't work as well as a rectangular shape.
