I like the ease of use of my Sony Digital Book reader. I can easily put it in my purse or briefcase and I'm off. The 3 sizes of print is most helpful also as I can enlarge the print to be able to read without my glasses. The two draw backs that I can see to improve my Digital Book would be a light and for Barnes and Noble to allow the down load of their books. Nonna
One of the best purchases I have made! Reads a wide selection of formats, unlike the Kindle. Stores appx. 160 books without a memory card. Holds up to 2 memory cards for even more storage. Lightweight. Easy to read & operate. I highly recommend this product! Great for the environment. Eliminates the stacks of books around the house. I LOVE IT!
I thought it was a little expensive. I bought it for my mom, who seemed to like it. I set it up for her on my dad's computer. It was easy to purchase the books. Come with free classic books, but she didn't want many of those. If you are using a mac computer, it is not compatible. Luckily my dad had his work laptop home, so we used that one. Easy to use, a fun gift for book lovers.
The Sony e-reader is a very nice product. My only disappointment is that there is no good light source for reading in dim light or in bed. I have tried a few different clip on lights and have not been impressed. If the cost of the product was less it would be easier to deal with this flaw. I have research the Kindle as well and they have the same problem with lighting. I also know that Sony has released the next version a (700 series) that does have a light....reviews have commented that the new touch screen version makes the text less crisp. I'm sure all the kinks will be worked out. If you aren't concerned about a light the Sony reader is a very good choice for you. Very nice looking,clear type and light weight.
I purchased the Sony e-book reader for my wife fo christmas. I was hesitant at first but the more I researched it the more i liked it. When it arrived i put it through the paces and have to say that it is a good product. Easy to load with books/music/pictures, has two types of expandable media slots for SD media card or Sony memory Pro duo slot. I think this is the best deal for an e-book reader. It is proced a lil steep, hopefully over time it will come down.
