Before I start, I will mention that I am interested in buying either the h20 or the Inkpad as my dedicated reader.

I was at my local second hand shop and I came across a Sony PRS-650. I have never seen one of these but I had a play with it, and wow, it is way nicer to use than my iRiver Story (original). I like the hardware buttons and the touchscreen.

Anyway, the guy at the shop said it comes with a case and charger and 2 GB SD card and he wanted $30 AUD ($25 USD) - I decided to put it on hold until tomorrow. I am wondering if after I get my dedicated reader, if there is any real point in owning this device at this price. I am assuming it is a good deal
