Techie advice - which E-reader?

LondonDiva

Hello guys

I have a Sony E-reader, which I love, but it's been playing up like heck and I've had to ask them to replace it. Unfortunately, my model (PR505) is now out of stock and I have a choice of a PR600 (retailing at £179 on the site or £199 on Amazon ) or a repair.

I don't want a repair as it started playing up about 5 months in and I don't want to just cover up a long term problem.

So - do I go for the PR600 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-eBook-Reader-Touch-PRS-600/dp/B002R5UYXY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1285440384&sr=8-1 or ask for a refund and buy another PR505? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-PRS505S-PRS-505-perfect-digital/dp/B000WPXQ2M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1285440384&sr=8-2

I got the PR505 in a sale for £149, when most places were selling for £200odd and the only other place I've found is on Amazon who are currently selling the PR505 for £225.

I'm paralysed by indecisiveness and welcome any thoughts; I seriously am in love the reader and will never go on holiday again without one.

thansk in advance guys:)

Look at this post as a starter here.

What's the problem with your 505, i have had mine for 18 months and it is still as good as ever. I got mine from play.com for £149 . It seems a lot of folks are recommending the Kindle 3.

Edit: Sorry just re-read your post, I would suggest the 600 is ok my brother in law had one last Christmas and is going well and he likes his more than mine.

Noooooooo to the Kindle - I need to be able to read pdfs and work stuff without being reliant on another website.

I also like the ability to own / control the books once I have them and email them to myself or others for info:)

New kindle can do pdfs and you can own/control/manage your books yourself. You're not reliant on "other" websites for stuff.
