I'm a little disappointed but I have to admit that it blows the Kindle out of the water (except for the wireless). The hardware is slick and the touchscreen allows a lot more than just fingerswiping with the keyboard search, possible dictionary support and annotation that I think a lot of potential education and business users might find necessary. I think overall it's a good move, though a little WiFi would have gone a long way. I'm still holding on to my 500 for now, because all I do with it is read and I don't really have much need for the touchscreen/keyboard/annotation, but as soon as I can come up with a reason, I might get one.
