There is no doubt that you can experience the joy of reading books on this device. The e-ink screen technology is amazingly clear and easy on the eyes. Storing thousands of books digitally on one compact device is certain to appeal to some. Its portable size makes it the perfect travel companion.

Sony recently added another Reader to their arsenal. The PRS-700 is very similar to the PRS-500, but it costs USD 100 more. For that additional cost, you will get a touch screen, more internal memory, a faster processor and the ability to make annotations with a stylus and an on-screen keyboard.

 Pros

  • Excellent screen
  • Easy on the eyes
  • Stylish and sleek
  • PDF, Word support
  • Excellent quality, weight, and design
  • SD and Memory Stick Pro support

Cons

  • AC adapter not included
  • No annotations or keyboard
  • No built-in speakers
  • No support for audio books
  • Must download books to the computer then to the device
  • Not enough text size options
  • PDFs not always readable
