Frankly I have been thinking of getting a device that will let me use our local library without having to do the DRM dance. Not settled on a Sony or Nook yet. (The recent firmware update for the nook seems to have solved most if not all of the perf issues.)

PS: Although I'm not sure if it is really so I can save money getting library books. Does it sound silly to spend $250 to save $6-$12 on each book? Hmmm?
I still want a Que. If the reviews are good and I like it, I probably won't keep the 505 (I don't need three 6 inch readers). If the reviews are bad, I'll most likely keep the 505 while waiting for a large reader that meets my needs.

I really liked the nook but it just isn't different enough from the Kindle for me to buy (though if I had money just falling out of my pockets, I'd own it and many other readers). I do think it is worth the purchase for library book usage. Over time, depending on how many books you check out, it will pay for itself.
