What makes Kindle my choice over the Sony 505 I used to have, is:
- it's a little quicker overall
- I love to be able to look up things in Wikipedia while reading
- I can add a translation dictionary (I'm trying to improve my German vocabulary)
- I like the ergonomics (esp. button placement and that there's something to hold on to - no cramped hands)
- good search possibilities
- I like the keyboard (don't use it a lot, but it's great when I need it, and I prefer it over a virtual keyboard on a screen)
- it's not made entirely in aluminium and thus not as cold to the touch like the 505 were (I like to use it without cover, makes it lighter).
