So i have been converting my power point files for class into PDF files. The sony reader is capable of viewing pdf files. I purchase this finely sophisticated sleek sony digital reader touch edition with a 6inch screen for my daily class note taking. True Sony Digital Reader Touch Edition for Class The only real down sides for me are that I would like a screen with a backlight illumination option and I wish it also came with its own protective carrying case (although Case Logic) makes cases for the Reader. It takes about 3 hours max to charge a fully uncharged battery. User storage capacity is around 1.5 GB depending on what applications are installed. The Reader's touch screen also allows you to write or draw on the screen using the included stylus and save the material as a file. It also comes with a pre-installed dictionary and slideshow application. The Sony Reader supports EPUB, PDF, BBeB (.lrf or.lrx), TEXT (,txt), RTF, and MS Word (.doc) file formats. So in that case, the Sony Reader PRS-350 is just the ticket.

Therefore, a color reader is really not necessary for me. Also, just about all the books I read are black text with white pages and no pictures or illustrations. The Sony Reader charges by USB connection to your computer, and it only takes a few moments to download any books you may want to read from the Reader store or other sources.

I spend more time reading my Reader than I do downloading books to it, so I really don't need a portable Internet accessible E-reader.

If you don't need "anywhere" instantaeous downloads (using WiFi for example) and you usually read books that are normally printed in black text on a white page, you'll like the convenience of the Sony Reader PRS-350 coupled with its economical price. The Sony Reader PRS-350 Pocket Edition is a nice, economically priced E-reader. True Economically Priced Non-WiFi Black and White E-Reader Gets put in a computer bag, book bag, purse- durability is needed and this has it. There were only two color choices available, but two is twice as much as the first Fords had, so double the options right off the bat! Small and slim are easy to deal with. Mostly intuitive, only once did I get lost. Got it with the idea for reading textbooks for class but the bigger model would be better for that. PDF's don't always expand that well and keep a readable format (L to R). But that has really only happened 2 times out of the 50 books I've read so far. Sometimes the print is small and I can't change it to a larger option. I have checked and the Sony store does carry all the authors I enjoy reading that have published with e-books. Has the highlight feature which is great.īeing a student I get my books for free- mostly old but I've had the chance to read the classics and that has been great. Very compact and small, easy to slip into a purse or bag.
