I still prefer Sony even if it seems they are probably going out of the reader business.

The usual eink features, very fast and easy collection handling, always sorts right and doesn't skip pages or reset often (twice for me with over 1000 books read), pretty solid firmware right out of the box and superb support from calibre. Sony has never made it difficult to load books or demanded registration or even seemed to care much where you bought your books from. Plus it is very easy to download from public libraries.

No frontlight, which I rarely use and they don't have the great support of Amazon.

The T3 is quite delightful while it gets a bit odd when deleting books if you put 10,000+ plus on it, seems rock solid with 4,000. (I don't need that many books on it, but was curious as to how it would handle them)

I think if I couldn't buy another Sony, either new or second hand I would go with a kindle as I prefer eink.
