Our sister blog Gadgetell reports that Books-a-Million and Sony are beating yesterday’s $109 Kindle refurb with a $99 refurbished Sony Reader 505-LC. Of course, as Gadgetell writer Robert Nelson notes, paying $10 more to get Amazon’s brand value and always-on 3G is not a bad deal at all.

Saw this mentioned on Publishers Lunch, but by the time I checked it out around noon they were already ‘unavailable’. The K2 refurb deal is sold out as well.
I agree with Nelson, but the Sony is more pocketable and a lot of people love reading on it. Some have considered its screen contrast a reference model (though I was lucky with my K2 but I think the Sony model, with half the gray-shade levels, is more consistent in not having too many gray-levels maybe affecting the contrast level perceived).
