I also had a Sony to start with. Now it's a paperweight! Different formats were not compatible to the point that it would freeze up. Argh! My Nook can read PDF's, epubs and whatever format Barnes and Nobles is. Also I can listen to books using the MP3 in the Nook and also watch Movies on Netflix and check email. My brother also stores pictures of his family on his.
