The non-Kobo book highlighting feature is really unfortunate, I hope that it is fixed in future upgrades. I wasn't aware of the partial refresh, though, I thought that only the new Nook had that.

Those who bought a Sony for other reasons will probably be more amenable to the KT.
I'll probably get a KT because I buy mostly from KoboBooks and I really like the oft-scorned social features.  |
I kind of like the social features, too, and I wouldn't mind a KT to use alongside my 350, too (not to replace it, though - the Sony has too many features that I love that I don't see on any other eink devices). I will wait for a bit before I buy one, however, I'm sure the price will come down eventually and I really don't need it. I would love to get one for someone as a gift, though!
