The only thing that makes me jealous as a 505 owner is the Wispernet. But that alone is really tempting me to switch now that it's in a less goofy casing. I'm feeling so conflicted now. Thankfully the Kindle is still overpriced so that should stop me right in my tracks.
What's everyone else thinking?

I've had both the Sony 505 and the Kindle and although I loved the look and feel of the Sony - that alone wasn't able to beat the wireless capability of the Kindle. I can look for and purchase new books practically anywhere I am. With the Kindle 2 looking so much better (and hopefully sturdier than the awful plastic of Kindle 1) ~ I think you should switch!
