Hi Bemen,
I think I can live with the primitiveness of these devices, and accept that they are not rich multimedia products, and are not meant to be. I think my frustration with my Sony is that for a product that costs £250 and from a major manufacturer it does seem to still be flaky and cause many of its users hassle in everyday use with sync problems, and hardware freezes etc. I just would have thought Sony would have sorted a large number of these things out by now.
But that said, even with all the niggles I've had with the product, and the few things I still don't like about it, I still very much like what it allows me to do, which is read more, and (on the whole) with more convenience. The glare and slightly reduced contrast on the touch screen is a bit of a pain sometimes, but I can live with that for the benefits it gives me for my usage.
My message to Sony, if ever anyone from there ever reads these posts, is make the product more reliable and think about how your customers will use these devices, if you're to stand a chance of keeping up when the next range of devices start to come on stream in a month or two's time.

PS the PRS-300 is a lovely little machine, and if I were only reading text, I'm sure that would have been my choice for something clear and pocketable.
