On the one hand, the Sony is $50 more. On the other, it does have some more features. Touch screen, built-in dictionary, annotations/note-taking, etc. Not to mention the fact that Sony is a bigger and more recognisable brand, and possibly might have better product support (though I'm not sure how good Kobo may be). But, at $149, the Kobo is easily the cheapest 6" e-Ink reader, and does seem like a bargain.

Any thoughts?
I would rcommend the Touch. The Kobo e-reader has a bunch of teething problems.
