I'd suggest waiting a month or so to see what 5" eInk devices arrive. I think at least two are due in the next month - the Bookeen Opus and Astak also have one coming out.

They have the same number of pixels (600x800) as the 6" models, just on a smaller screen.

I have been using mobile devices (Palm, Windows Mobile devices) to read ebooks for many years. The main advantges of such devices is that they are highly portable and one can use it every where. The disadvantages are its small screen size and eye discomfort after reading for over 30 minutes. Therefore I am actively looking for another ebook reader. I am considering buying the Sony PRS-505 but I am still thinking of ther alternatives such as the Kindle DX, PRS-700. I am not sure if I should wait for a few more months as there seems to be some good ebook readers coming up to the market. (However, I am not a patient person and I don't think I can wait that long!).
If you have good experience in using some of the ebook readers on the market, please share them so that people like me who are looking for a good ebook reader can make better decision.
