If Amazon, however, were to do a firmware upgrade allowing the reading of library ebooks, I would find no reason to buy the new Sony.
I love the Amazon store but prefer the Sony reader and that's exactly why I will buy a PRS-2121 to go with my K2. I love going back and re-reading good part of a book and the Sony page number system allows me to shuffle through books like a paper book. I also read a lot of bundle books and I use the Sony to tell me when I almost finish with one of the stories (example, now I'm reading a bundle that has 2,022 pages in small font, the 4th story started on page 737 and ends on page 1001), I love knowing exactly where I am in a book. The history section for each book make it impossible to lose where you are. I will continue to use the Amazon store but I already know the PRS-2121 will be my main reader replacing my PRS-505!
