While that may not be true, I still really like the sony eReader. Now some people think it sucks I personally love it. I have read 6 books on it at this point and really enjoy it. I like the fact that it is small; wait stop before you say 'well so is a book' keep in mind that a book it over a inch think if you are reading something a little more involved the curious George becomes President, so the fact that the device is small means that I can drop it in my very trendy cargo pocket and take it with me all the time. The device being small means that I can throw it in my laptop backpack on business trips and have more then one book in very little space.
Now tell me that that does not make you want to run out and buy one? Some people will say 'It does not have wireless! It does not take out my trash and store 500 gigs of music and play video and answer my phone and help old people cross the street!' While all of that is true it does do something really well that I feel that a reader should do really well; display text! Thats right I picked this little gadget up to READ books on not listen to music, play video, or display photos. Other people are upset about the DRM aspect of the books sold by Sony's Connect store and I can understand that to an extent. Also some people dislike the lack of a search feature and I wish a search feature existed it was not a deciding factor for me when I picked the PRS-505 over the amazon kindle.
If you have not seen a eInk screen yet go down to your local best buy and check out the PRS-505 it really is everything it is cracked up to be. The screen is like reading paper, it is really amazing after so many years spent reading text on a CRT or LCD. Odds are if you are worried about the $300 bucks this device will set you back you are flipping burgers at a McDonalds for a living claiming that you are 'still exploring your options in life'. That is not to say that McDonalds burger flippers do not play a important role in society or to say that McDonalds burger flippers are stupid. I am sure they are very smart and highly motivated people and they really are just exploring options. After all 40 is the new 20 right? I digress, back to the eReader. Go buy one or at least look at one if you enjoy reading I think you will enjoy it.
