And a little more sturdy.
You can zoom in on PDFs, it just doesn't work as well as an LRF. However, the Sony 700 can read PDFs much more easily AND you can take notes. It usually lists for $399, but lately is closer to $350. It has a touch screen, a built in light, and (coolest ever!) you can look at your books by cover. The trade off is the screen isn't as clear because of the touch screen, but a lot of people get used to it quickly (usually those who haven't had an eink device before, but not always).
And if you have a computer with you (with the software loaded, not public pc) and you have a US based credit card, you can buy books from the Sony store anywhere.
I'm also pretty happy with Sony's selection. Their prices are a little more than Kindle's. Maybe you should take a look on their store (
http://ebookstore.sony.com) and search for books you would be interested in buying and compare.
Can you tell I love my Sony?
