They are both handheld programmable electronic libraries that you read like a book. No glare, new technologies. Anyone here already own with and care to comment?

The Kindle has some pretty cool features. I like the fact that it connects to a cellular network, so you can download books from just about anywhere (not just wifi spots). If I could afford one, I'd definitely get it just to play with it. They're on backorder though if you look at the product page.

    I would like one but too pricey. I like the kindle because it has free wireless access to blogs and wikipedia. The sony one is smaller but lacks a keyboard for entering comments.
