![]() Rating: - Sony EBook readerI currently own several (3) of the PRS-505 Ebooks by Sony, and am generally very pleased. I have purchased many ebooks in the last few months (love to read, any chance I get), and love to brag to others about my ebooks. The book is lightweight, about the same size as a regular (printed) book, and easy to transport in a pocket or backpack. The selection of book on the Sony ebook site is generally OK, with a few authors that are cutting edge, and many that were completely unknown to me before I took ... Read More Rating: - Sony ReaderI really like this gadget. I can have hundereds of books at my fingertips without any cluttered shelves. It is very portable, light weight, and best of all...it reads just like a paper page. If you like to read, this may be just the ticket for you. After using this electronic reader for a couple of months now I can honestly say prefer it to a traditional book; so light and easy to handle, and very easy to carry around. The Sony ebook store has a very large and good selection of books to ... Read More Rating: - Sony Reader in GermanyI bought the Sony Reader knowing full well that it was not supported in Germany. Still, first the horse, then the carriage. The Sony Book Store does not support purchases in Europe. Up to now, I have not found any E-book stores with a good selection whose titles suppport the Sony Reader. I would like to use the Reader to read German, but there are very few interesting legal E-books in German to support the Sony. For European use, which it was not made for, I would not recommend it. Read More Rating: - a word for the supplierI am writing primarily to praise the company that carries this product on the Amazon website. The company is DataVision. I purchased the Sony 505 e-text reader from them. Unfortunately I suffer from a disease that renders my hands almost useless, so that I can no longer hold a book or turn a page. I'd hoped that the Sony would help eliminate these problems. Unfortunately I did not have the strength to activate the side tabs at all, and could use the wheel only with great difficulty. Reluctantly,I ... Read More Rating: - Excellent Product!I have had my PRS-505 for almost 2 months now and overall I love it. Although I have not used any other ereaders (e.g. Kindle) I can highly recommend the Sony PRS-505 with no reservations. Pro's: A) Display is very easy to read and easy on the eyes B) Solid - case is made out of metal, not plastic C) Virtually unlimited storage using memory card slots D) An INCREDIBLE # of titles available. Just do a search on the web. Although I do NOT advocate pirating books, I have been able to ... Read More |
