Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum.

I currently have a Sony PRS-505. I am looking to upgrade to a device with the new sharper pearl e-ink screen. It is between the Kindle 3 and the new Sony PRS-650. I had decided on the Sony as I hate the plastic look of the Kindle with a keyboard. Downloading and transferring books does not bother me (would rather have a reader that looks like a book) However, many epub books have stupid margins - some an inch left and right meaning books are like reading a newspaper column which I find really annoying. Could you please feedback if this is an issue with some Kindle books. If Kindle store books are perfectly formatted i.e. using the full screen I may switch to Kindle as the reading experience is more important than how the device looks.

Thanks
