But for me the main reason for jumping on the Sony Reader is battery life, and the ability to take more than 128Megs of memory. I want to carry all my books with me when I travel, and I want to be able to read more than one book before I have to recharge it, something I couldn't do with my 1150 or, for that matter, with my iPaq (nasty thing to read a book on, that!).
Just FYI, I have a disposable mobile reader I bought from borders. It has only one book and you cannot change it. It does not require power and has a fantastic ink display
