eReader

December 19, 2009

So I was at Target this morning when I saw a demo display for the Sony Reader. I had heard vaguely about these new Readers, but didn’t know much about them. After watching the video for a couple of minutes, I wanted one. The only problem was that it cost $199, so I think I can wait awhile.

It’s a great concept: hundreds of books all consolidated into one gadget. You can highlight and make notes on the text. You can even use a built-in dictionary for those annoying words you can’t define.

Just buy books on an iTunes-like program, transfer them to your Reader, and you’re good to go.

I guess this proves that everything is going digital.

    yeah, Justin's X-mas present for me is the new Barnes and Noble Nook. Waaay better than the Sony one and Amazon's Kindle. Unfortunately, they are sold out and are behind on manufacturing so my estimated delivery isn't until Feb 1. So sad, but totally worth it. Because I'm running out of shelving for my books, so if I bought another good bookshelf and filled it with books, I would be spending more than I would be spending on my eReader :)
