So far I've only ever seen the Sony 300 and 600 (well the 505, too, before Target changed their displays). The 600 seems basically satisfactory. Got a chance to try a nook yesterday. I was very disappointed. It felt very top-heavy to me and the response time was agonizing. Particularly for trying to do any highlight/annotation. I was willing to play wait-and-see to see if they were going to come up with PDF notes, but not anymore. I guess they might be able to speed it up in the future, but I'm a bit dubious they will be able to make it lighter.
