Charadeur I have both the PRS-505 and the Kindle. I also researched and asked questions last year, and decided to go with the PRS-505, which I received on December 4th, 2007. This past October, I bought the Kindle after owning my PRS-505 for 10 months. I've never regretted my original choice because I love my 505. I love the ease of use of the PRS-505. I love the ease of checking out library books. I love the looks of the PRS-505. I read mostly fiction & historical romance, so I have not ran into major problems finding books to read. as for cost of books, I mostly buy my historical romance from Sony, the price of the books for that gerne are not that much off from other stores. But mostly I buy Lit or Mobi from Books-on-Board & Fictionwise. I dont have major issue converting. But now I also have a Kindle (3 weeks now), I love it too. I love the fact that content are cheaper. I love the fact that I can get a sample of the book and if I choose to buy the book, just turn on Whispernet & click buy from the sample menu of the book. I love the ease of the amazon book store. I dont know if having a dictionary is a plus, since I have not found that I need to use it. Both readers have their pros & cons. Which ever one you choose will be great because they are both fantastic. I recommend both!!
