I dont know anything about the Sony Reader and only bought my first Kindle book today but it appears that on average the books are $10.

Re: Sony Reader VS. Kindle

The Kindle is wireless and you can download books from where ever you are. Depending on how old the book is depends on the price. So new releases are around $10 while books that have gone into paperback are around $5.

From what I understand the Sony reader isn't wireless so you have to attach it to your computer and download the books that way. I have no idea about prices for the Sony.

I've had a kindle for 2 years and love it!

I haven't looked into them that much, but from what I've read the Kindle has a lot more books available for download than either the Reader or the Nook (Barnes & Noble).

Of the 3, the Nook is the only one that allows you to share books that were downloaded with another Nook.
