I’ve been looking at getting an e-book reader recently and have narrowed it down to the Amazon Kindle and Sony Reader 505. Unfortunately I can’t choose between the two. Please provide your informed reccomendations. Something to think about is that the wireless features of Kindle will not work for me, so that entire plus is gone. Also, I’m thinking that $400 is a bit steep compared to the $300 Sony, so please take price into mind when considering each option. Do the Kindle’s benefits really merit an extra hundred dollars? All help appreciated.

I would probably go with the Sony if I were you.
Since the wireless connection won’t work for you, it’ s probably not worth the extra hundred dollars.
One other thing you may consider is that more books and content is available for the Amazon Kindle.
You can check out both Sony And Amazon’s book collection and see which suits you best.
One of the main selling points of the Kindle is that you can get new books and bestsellers for $9.99. If you buy a lot of new hardback books, that might justify paying the extra $100.
