Thank you for your responses. Unfortunately I have procrastinated and only have a few days to get one, so I can't spend the time doing the kind of research I normally do before I buy. Otherwise I would definitely spend a few days just reading around the forums.

That is what I was referring to in my OP. I also read that the Kindle 2 doesn't have a USB port, is that right?
Basically my needs are:
Decent screen size
Straightforward, simple to use
Can easily back up e-books on the computer and transfer back to device
Plenty of available e-books and stores at which they can be purchased
So far, I don't even know what's out there, except the Kindle, Barnes and Noble's reader, the iPad, and I've just been informed of the Sony 505
(thx).
