Review
I recently bought this reader direct from Sony. It’s a great reader! It feels solid, well made and stylish looking. The screen is very easy on the eyes, I find I can read for hours whereas reading on a computer screen bothered my eyes after a half hour or so. Did you know, using a free program called Calibre eBook Management, you can even download newspapers to your reader, free of charge!!
