sony prs t1 or t2

Looking to upgrade my sony pr505 as battery going. Is there much difference between the T1 and T2 or does it justify the €40 extra for the T2?

I had a look at other ereaders but I like sony and have had good service out of the pr505.

I got a T1 to replace my 505 and like it better, page turns faster, I prefer the UI and of course there is the browser which my 505 didn't have. I haven't seen any T2s to compare them to my T1.

T1 has audio, T2 doesn't...T2 has Evernote integration. But can you still get the T1? Here in North America they are generally sold out and only the T2 is available!

Maybe try getting a used / refurbished T1. You might get a deal. Remember that e-readers these days are not built to last. Those 505s were unusually high quality. No e-reader built now will give such good service.

Between the T1 and the T2 there is next to no difference. The audio aspect is irrelevant. Evernote and the social networking of the T2 is irrelevant. They are the same.

Oh, and get a case. You can get cheap ones on ebay. The Sony one is a scam (like $60 for something that costs cents to make. Ain't capitalism working great.)
