"Pros I brought one of these for my wife for Christmas, after opening the box and installing the software to download a few books I got so addicted to the thing that I brought one for myself. Very easy to read, the unit feels very sold in the hand and before long you are zipping through books like crazy. The screen sounds small (six inch diagonal) but it seems to be the perfect size for reading. The navigation o..." Read Full Review »

"I bought in December 2008 the new PRS-700 Sony Reader. In March 2008 I had purchased the prior model, the PRS-505. My intention at the time was to have a portable reader where to store the different laws I need handy when I go to court. I was not considering it for book reading, except when killing time at court. I had a marked preference for reading paper-booksand was not considering changing that. But, the PRS..." Read Full Review »

"I had been researching this for the past couple years, really ever since I first heard of e-paper/e-ink, and I knew even back then that I would eventually have to get this. The PRS-505 has just about everything that you need, and not much you don't. Personally I recommend this to just about anyone w …" Read Full Review »

Sony PRS-505 Digital eBook Book Reader Review
"I used to wonder why anyone would use of these for reading until I got one, now I can't ever see myself going back to a traditional hard/soft cover paper book.
