I don't know anything about the Onyx Boox 60 since the IREX is the only other reader I considered due to my screen size specifications. That PRS-900 is truly awesome. It's almost the same size as the Kindle 2 (which has a 6 inch screen), in fact the Kindle 2 is bigger. If a person is in the US and can get around buying Amazon books without a Kindle then the PRS-900 is wayyyyy better!
This is really the size difference. I took the picture at this angle to illustrate that. They are almost the same height but the kindle 2 is almost an inch wider!
Kindle2, PRS-900

Thanks Lily, I think I'll be chaning my sig soon
By the way, it's a great idea to buy an ereader as a present. I might do the same thing for my sister in law. She loves reading romance novels and is always complaining about having deal with so many books around the house collecting dust!
