I use it, I like it okay, but if I were getting a new one for myself I'd likely choose something else.

But for $99... it's probably worth it.
That is kind of what I was thinking. Apparently Sony has addressed those issues with the 650, weight is lighter, speed is faster, contrast is better. Of course that isn't the one that Woot has on sale... I did check out the 650 at Best Buy and was quite impressed at the responsivity/speed of the new infrared touch screen. I noted little difference in the contrast between the Kindle and new generation Sony. Sadly their Nook wasn't registered and insisted that it had to be registered before I could look at anything - but I wasn't considering it anyway.
