Thanks Bob. Looking forward to hearing what you think.
Harry, I see your point 100%.
I honestly wanted a Sony for the sole purpose of reading ebooks.
However I had a look over my downloaded collection of novels and every one of them is a pdf file in varying sizes and fonts, and having read extensively on these forums about how native pdf isn't always what you want it to be on the Sony Reader, it started my mind wandering to alternatives.
Comics, for example, and graphic novels etc. Colour would be nice, I thought, and then I read about how tablets are fairly portable these days (albeit a lot more money than a Sony reader) and on top of the ebook side of things, I'll also have a laptop/tablet to take with me and log onto the net if I'm in a wireless area (something I've never done before).
So as you can see, all of the possibilities sort of opened up.
Now I just have to 'open up' my wallet and part with a lot more money than I originally intended.
Heck, if we were at the stage where the Ebook's displayed everything you put on them natively, and were in colour, I'd buy one today.
The fast startup times and long battery life are unbeatable, as you said.
Anyway, I'm still very confused either way.
When I noticed that Bob bought a tablet to read ebooks, I jumped on him for more info because if it works for him, then I'm on the right track.
