But, TODAY, no store that I see beats the pricing or availability of the Kindle store. That is why I chose to replace my Sony 500 with a Kindle1 rather than a Sony 505. (BTW: I had bought 0 books from the Sony ebook store after having the device for 1 year.)

Siwickimom said she does not mind removing DRM and converting. This means that she can purchase eBooks and convert them to ePub for a 505 now and use them on a future device later on. That is a good investment.
