MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Which reader without glare and with note taking ability

I'm very happy with my Kindle 2. IMHO, the K2 screen is too small for reading PDFs, but the fact that you can rotate the screen helps. I haven't tried the Kindle DX, but it stands to reason that PDFs would be easier to read on it than a K2.

There is hardly any glare on the Kindle screen, and it excels at taking notes, which I do constantly. The physical keyboard, although tiny, is a real plus, and beats the virtual keyboard on my Nook hands down.

I have no idea how the Kindle compares to the Sony readers. The Nook and the Kindle are the only two readers with which I have first-hand experience. Anything I say about the Sony 600 would be strictly second-hand.
