In my mind it's like comparing a screwdrive wth a hammer. A PDA and the Sony eReader are different tools for different jobs. If you aren't the kind of person who normally carries books around to read, then the Sony eReader isn't for you. If you are the kind of person who is going to carry a PDA around all the time anyway and you just want to be able to kill time while waiting for an appointment, while dining alone, or while waiting for your wife to finish shopping, then a PDA is probably better for you. But if you want an electronic book that you are going to use regularly to read books that you otherwise have purchased in paper format, then an eReader is probably a good choice. The Sony eReader is much easier to read than a PDA. If you don't expect the eReader to be a replacement for your PDA and if you don't expect the eReader to be anything other than a book, then you will be well satisfied with it, as I am with mine.
