Well that irritates …
Well that irritates me, I have a sony ereader, that’s all it’s called not this one being reviewed, and it is the most unorganized and infuriating piece of technology I have. If anyone gets an E-reader from sony be sure it’s the right kind, otherwise you ma waste a few hundred dollars.

Yes, can we upload any pdf that we already have? Or can it only show ‘licensed’ pdfs? I wouldn’t like to pay for downloading an ebook…

My 505 has saved me a fortune in classic books. A shop will charge £3 for a public domain title which you can download free from the internet. Reading them on a pc is awful, but the ereader is great.

Do not get me wrong …
Do not get me wrong..I love books..specialy old ones…but what I am saying that for carrying purposes…it would be nice to take some weight off from students by introducing this in schools….if not well something else more advanced that could hold all needed information but in less space and weight for the students…for simply pleasure reading..of course..nothing like a book…but we must use tech..and introduce it where it is needed.

“… even a 1gb will add like a thousand books, because picture files don’t take up a lot”
Ah, those famous TXT and PDF picture files…

Now, it would be nice to be able to scan any book into this gadget….and save trees..not use paper anymore…and also, children would not need to carry such heavy backpags to school..if all of their books are in this small gadget. Happy to see green tech.

Why does the formatting look all messed up on a lot of the pages? Is that a glitch or that’s how a lot of books look on this thing?

Great product.
I think this is the future for reading most books.
I am somewhat dependent on seeing color pictures with genuine representation for some of the studing i do – like pictures of different dysphories. Also I would like to take notes or make comments to the text. When you have several books that weight like heavy cargo it woud be great to have a product like this.

I’ll buy a product like this when it has a left and right screen, where one screen can be used for reference. e.g. for a technical book, you could view a diagram from one page while reading the text from another. I also hear that this re-sizes all pages to fit the screen, with no zoom capability. That’s another downer. So product has not yet come of age.

What is the …
What is the strategy for Sony for not selling you a plug other than a usb device? it’s a non sense…
The price in Europe is to high for this kind of device (279 Euro) and the book proposed on line are still expensive and to few in French languages…
