Order Sony PRS-300SC Digital Reader Pocket Edition in Silver w/ Premium Protective Cover and AC Wall Charger
This is the first e reader I use and I am getting to like it more and more. I took it on vacation and never felt so free of the anxiety of not finding anything good to read. I used to lug around 4-5 paperbacks in my suitcase, now I just have to load up this little beauty. But there is still a long way to go before I am fully satisfied, and it just does not replace the sheer physical pleasure of books. And have to confess that part of the enjoyment is just the geekiness.
Some things you need to keep in mind:
1) Still trying to find an effective way of getting new titles legally. I live in Egypt - so had it shipped out internationally. You can not use the Sony e-bookstore site from Egypt, or Amazon or Barnes and Noble. By default I have to rely on public domain titles - mostly from [...]. Still waiting for them to figure out all the copyright issues so I can buy ebooks on line. So if you live outside US, Canada or Europe - really think about how you are going to use this
2) I relied on previous reviews on Amazon to select this product- and am so glad I followed the advise to use Calibre ([...]). The Sony software does not compare.
3)Scrolling back and forth between pages is not as easy as it should be. Keys are a little stiff, and its easy to skip forward or back by mistake. I am over 40 so like that there are 3 font sizes, but wouldn't mind having the largest font even larger.
4) The AC wall charger is worth the investment.Get more detail about Sony PRS-300SC Digital Reader Pocket Edition in Silver w/ Premium Protective Cover and AC Wall Charger.
