I would look around for a 505 because it can be hacked and some of the others can't. The screen is considered one the best and tons of people on this site own one. You can put fonts on it that you like and make folders for it with hacks. I have my SD card full of 1,000's of ebooks on them and in under 5 seconds transfer any ebook i'm interested in to internal memory. (without hack it would take very, very long time to SCAN SD card , and was a pain, and folders didn't exist, so the NEW hacks , make it so it can skip SD SCAN, but you see folders and ebooks in folders, and transfer them in one step into internal memory, saving battery life and scan time)
This ability is NEW and comes from hacks, the newer sony models can't be hacked yet, and even people put games on it NOW.
I'm sure others will come up with other ereaders for you to look into, and maybe one of them will work for you.
