I just like to read books a lot, and the Sony Readers handle many formats, so I don't need multiple devices for compatibility. I do have 3 Readers tho: Bought the 500 over 2 years ago when Sony had that great $60 deal. About 6 months later, I bought the 505 as a gift for my gf--although she got the 500 because it was russified and the 505 wasn't up for that yet, so I kept the 505. Then a few months ago I picked up a 300 for portability, and have been using it 100%, even at home. Interestingly, my gf still uses the 500 even though I've suggested several times that she use the (now-russified) 505.

I don't plan on buying any more Readers. I don't want/like the extra features, and am fully satisfied with the reading experience of the models I have. (Keyboard-nah, I just read. Wireless-nah, I have tons of books already loaded. Color lcd just to display/select book titles--why? To eat up more battery life, of course! Silly gimmick imo.)
