Was it worth it? My wife wants a reader, and she wants a Kindle 2.

I currently have a Sony Reader, and if she gets a Kindle, I am trying to decide if I want to as well. Mainly for the ability to share books (we read a lot of the same things). But she does not want the Sony one, no matter how hard I try.

So I am looking for input from current Kindle users, or people who have switched.

Size differences, interface differences, etc.
If you have a 505, stick with it. You can purchase eBooks for the K2 (in AZW), remove the DRM and easily convert to LRF using Calibre. It's a win-win for both. But, if you have the 500, then you'll like the K2 better.
