This is a great piece of electronic equipment... the display is fantastic, totally lives up to what's advertised, however switching between menu screens and changing pages seems a bit slower than I would live.

I got the sony reader for my birthday and i LOVE it, i do wish the BRIGHTNESS LEVEL WAS BETTER like my old rocket ebook, but i do love the size of it, and the battery life is great!! i only gave it 4 stars because of the brightness level...

The Sony Reader is an absolute marvel. First of all the screen - is incredible - the brighter the light - the easier it is to read the screen. It was described to me as liquid paper, and is a different technology than LCD's. An LCD is backlit - and in bright sunlight difficult to read.
Not the Sony Reader - It has no backlight, and is intended to be just like a book (ie. Needs light to read).
It is elegant, light, CRISP screen, and capable of storing E-Books, MS Word Documents, and Adobe .pdf files.
MOST Amazing is the battery life - it is rated in page turns, not hours on. It takes virtually no electric power and can stay on indefinately, and only takes power when you turn a page. (Allows 7,500 page turns on a re-charge)
I have read more than 5,000 pages already, and find it so easy to carry around many books that I have always wanted to read, but couldn't find the space in my briefcase to carry the book(s). I have 80 books currently on mine....... So many books are available for free on the internet.
Even better - is the Sony READERS ability to play your favorite music while reading your books, because it plays MP3's.
And if all that isn't enough - You can store pictures in it as well.
Could not recommend this product higher - MUST HAVE!!!!!!
