We have the Sony PRS-505, which is not quite the latest model. But we love it. I think the PRS-700 is the latest model - I think it differs in that it has a built in book light and more memory.

You'll probably be deciding between the Kindle and the Sony Reader. The Kindle is nice in that it is wireless, and because Amazon offers a bigger selection than Sony. However, the Kindle can only read books in the Kindle format.

To compete with Amazon's selection, Sony is taking their reader in a more open direction. It can read their own format, plus PDFs, plus several other ebook formats in common use. Most people also like the Sony design better - it's sleek metal vs. Kindle's oddly shaped plastic.

manybooks.net have Sony format books for free. They are all out of copyright but I love the old books, anyway.
