Sony ebook store is not the only place to buy content for the Sony. There are many places that sell ebooks in Sony format, as well as free sources. And, if you are willing to convert that opens up more. If you are willing to "liberate" (remove DRM) that opens up even more.

You don't say why this is the one you want. However, many have said that if your main use is recreational reading of fiction books, this is not the best choice due to the poorly implemented mobi reader and battery life and support.

Looks aside you can use Whispernet to download public domain books from feedbooks.com and from here. But, how you can dismiss the Kindle because it has an "extra" feature that the others don't even have?
