Thank you all for your advice! I tracked down a floor model "behind the counter" at my local Sony Store for $162! I had set up a Calibre account in advance of the purchase and had 98 of my html books (converted from LIT for my ebookwise) converted into Epub, organized into collections and ready to go. All I had to do was charge it up and load it up.

I am very pleased with it. My old ebookwise has served me well, but buying in LIT is becoming harder, and going through the whole conversion process for every single book is a drag. I will miss the backlight, but that is easily solved by buying a cover with a built-in light. Also, I wish the pages turned more smoothly. However, they are very minor complaints compared to the many advantages. Again, thank you all.
