Though getting the JetBook now and upgrading in a year or so might be an option.
BTW, what's up with the JetBook Lite? It's 20 Euros less, somehow, though I am unsure of the advantages/ disadvantages of having a regular battery machine...

I don't think I like the thickness of it. The big advantage to my PRS-505 is that it's thin and easy to stuff into a bag. Adding a big battery bulge would reduce the portability a lot, but would make it handy if you're traveling where there aren't many opportunities to recharge. Other than that, I think the devices are the same.
I understand not wanting to wait a long time. I already have an ebook reader and I tolerate it until something better comes out, but it's nice having an ebook reader now, even if I know I'll replace it once I come across something better. There are a lot of folks with current devices that feel the same way...enjoy now, upgrade later. JetBook is one of the best choices for that IMO.
