Agree. Having used both the Sony Reader and the Kindle and finally the iPad to read books, I'd have to say that the iPad is superior to both. I can't speak for those who have their own experiences so I'm just relating mine like Cody. I also think it will only be a matter of time before a company comes up with a screen protector that will address the 'glare' and and reflection issues. I've personally never had to deal with them and I've used the iPad both in direct sunlight and under a bright lightsource. Just a matter of angling it another way.
