Not that I'm really considering getting a Sony eReader at this time, but TigerDirect is selling manufacturer refurbished T2s for $69. But the Sony eReader Store is no longer in operation. Will new Sony eReaders work on Kobo's store, or just ones transferred over that already had a Sony account? And, since it appears that you are required to have a Sony eReader Store account to sign up for Overdrive (they ask you to enter in a Sony provided account code as part of the sign-up process) is that code still somehow available on a newly purchased Sony eReader? What attracts me to the T2 (besides the build and (current) good price) is the fact that I wouldn't have to use ADE for ePubs. (I use Linux so I can't use ADE -- I've run into that issue with my Nook.) My local library seems to have more Kindle books than ePub, but it might be nice to be able to handle both without a computer in the middle.
