I appreciate all the responses. In looking at the two, here's what I am thinking:
PROS FOR KINDLE:
Access to more of the books I've been interested in for the past few months at cheaper prices.
Purchasing available everywhere.
Cheaper (vs. the 600)
Customer Service
Greater incentive for company to continue supporting product
Less glare on screen
PROS FOR SONY
More elegant design (The Kindle looks ugly in pictures.)
Known entity -- 99.9% of Sony Products I've owned have been quality products.
Access to books from other sources (Sadly, my library does not carry the books through Overdrive, and I wonder if I really would use this.)
Access to your own documents without paying (not sure if this is important to me)
In the end, I'm still torn. When I think about what I look for in a device (well designed, flexibility, quality construction (I'm assuming)), SONY wins. When I think about what I want to use it for (primarily reading new releases at a reasonable price), Kindle wins.
Why do these types of decisions have to be so tough?
