Don't. Do. That. Again.

You are responsible for the many devices I have already, so don't go down that road

Seriously, I end up not using the 600 much, if at all. It is so slow at adding new books...... I use the K2 at home and the Pocketbook 360 (those you really should give a try, btw

) outside because it is tiny and fits in any purse. The 505 (as you always say yourself) is a great device, so I keep that one and use it when I travel (if I lose it, I'd be sad, but it was a very cheap deal).

I found the Nook lovely from the beginning, but was rather put off by the functionality or better said lack of functionality (no working bookmarks? please !). With the new update, many issues seem to be resolved, so I will give it a go. If I don't like it enough, it'll go to my brother, this is the reason why I have to make sure the things he likes are working.

I don't need the many features the 900 offers, so it is certainly a great device, but without WiFi, it is missing the only gimmick I miss in the readers I own. Basically, I just read. I am not in the US, I don't take many notes, and could do it with a pen on a pad next to me, I convert my pdfs, plus I don't like the design of the 900 really, it is long, dark and has "a sad face". But this is a conversation for the "which one to choose" area..
