thanks for the response wallcraft, I will check out the Pepper Pad. I'd never even heard of that but I think it might be overkill for a reader though I could see some uses for myself.
Thanks for your response too stxopher, what I meant by my comment is while the typesetting is quite sharp, I was surprised by the graininess of the screen and strong bluish tint to the background, not at all like the website photos. I've since seen videos of the Sony Reader and I really believe I was doing something wrong or the one I was looking at was defective. In the videos the background is a nice bright white.
I really like the Sony Reader's price and form factor. I'm going to check it out again.
