Question by Anna VanEssa: What’s the best touch screen ebook reader?
I need a touch screen one with a stylus so that I can annotate and make notes, so a kindle or a nook won’t cut it. I’ve looked into the Sony readers, but I’m not a fan of the glare on the screen. The bebook neo looks pretty good, but I’m not sure. Suggestions?

I don’t suggest touch screen for ebook readers. Touch screen will add an additional layer to the eInk screen of ebook reader and it’ll make the screen glare. That’s why the touch screen models of Sony Reader is more glare than non-touch screen model.
Actually we can still annotate and make notes very well without touch screen. See the section “Highlights, Bookmarks, Clippings, Notes” on the official page here, that how the Kindle can make annotation:

BTW, Amazon just released a new Kindle and it is much better. I’ve given a detailed comparison between the Nook and the new Kindle, in another answer here (I’ve also mentioned where to get free books in the answer). Guess you’ll find interested:

And if you’re getting the Kindle, my advice for you is to place the order as soon as possible so to ensure it arrives to you early. The first batch has just sold out and the second batch now deliver on or before 8th Sept. When the second batch get out of stock, it may take another month for it to be back in stock, and you’ll have to wait much longer.
Here is the list of all models available to get:
