I love the PRS-900 and have not regretted my decision not to wait for IREX. I'm done for now.

It's either PRS-900 or Onyx Boox 60 for me (thus the lame signature).
I love the Sony gear - I would be however paying a premium for the GSM connectivity feature that I wouldn't be using. There's also the glare issue (which I understand isn’t a biggy). BTW, how are you finding the whole glare/reflection compared between PRS-900 and your Kindle?

Onyx is attractive because it's crisp and has generally good feedback. It's a bit cheaper than PRS-900, but not prohibitively so.

I'm with you on the Irex front. For me they failed big time once they dropped support for the Iliad. Although I like their gadgets, the support is somewhat lacking.
