Voted Sony here, with my Kobo Aura HD and Mini a close second. I love the Sony screens the best, and the Kobo font/margin tweeking capability. The HD screen is a thing of beauty, but I never read with it lit anymore. I use an old m-edge light.
I'm in the minority that doesn't like the front-lit eInk screen. Just not esthetically pleasing to my eyes. When it's lit, it's like reading on a tablet or computer screen, and once I found eink I never could get into reading off my tablets/PDAs again. The light layer on my Glo is visible when it's unlit, and maybe because I worked in commercial glazing my eye goes *right* to the little fibers every time. Distracting as heck. So to me, why sacrifice clarity & a great-looking screen for what amounts to a tablet-reading experience at night?
Weirdly, I resisted getting an eink device and stuck with my Axim because I'm a nighttime reader and wanted a backlit screen. If PDAs hadn't died out I might never have picked up my first Nook and discovered eink.
