I bought my avid reader / techie wife a Sony PRS-500 a month ago. She loves it and so do I. I just got one for myself and I'm already halfway through Neal Stephenson's "Quicksilver," which somehow I never managed to get through in paper form.
I do look forward eagerly to some better tools to make creating RTF and LRF files easier. I have many technical documents in PDF form I want to have on my Reader, but so far the translation process to RTF has been tedious and loses too much formatting. Sony's DRM store seems fairly sane, and I've bought many books there, but long-term I need to use more open document formats.
