My husband and I got each other refurbed Kindles for Christmas (thanks to the pre-Christmas Oprah sell-out one week before I went to order his as a surprise), and we love them. We knew it was likely that K2 would come out sometime after Chrstmas, either fulfilling the old orders or once those had been filled. But we knew we liked what the original model offered, so we went ahead and ordered. Sure, we're a little envious now about Kindle 2, and there are some features we like better on our originals. But we are happy and probably won't upgrade until ours are broken (hopefully a long time).
Basically, what I'm saying is don't regret getting the Sony - you picked the device you liked, you can use it, and then when it's time to upgrade, you'll know better what you're looking for in a reader. It's just the nature of technology.
And RickyMaveety, I see the guinea pirate and I'm SO STARTLED.
