I've tried the new eink readers and didn't like them.
Now keep in mind both my wife and I read in bed at night and neither one of us sleep normal hours. With the 1150's we are able to read without disturbing the other person, plus the things are rock solid and the battery lasts a heck of a long time.
I purchase books from anywhere in ereader, mobi, or lit and strip the DRM and format shift them to IMP. If you get stuck with something ask in here as we have some experts!
If my 1150 broke I would buy another one without thinking about it.
