I'd consider it, but I'm afraid that if I do, that I'll neglect my 600 and I don't want to do that. I paid good money for it and even though the books are cheaper and the screen a little crisper on the Kindle, I still love my Sony. What would you do?
You have a 600 that you like. Your sister has a K2 that she likes. Most of the free eBooks that come out for the K2 also come out for the Sony. And sometimes you do get free eBooks in ePub that won't work with a K2.

It's quite easy to strip the DRM from most Kindle eBooks provided they are in AZW and not Topaz (TPZ or AZW1).

I would say keep your 600 and forgo a K2. If you do decide to get a second reader have a look at the forthcoming larger screen readers.
