In addition to a built-in light, there's an interactive touch screen that lets you turn pages with the slide of a finger or activate the bookmark. You can also create annotations with a virtual keyboard, highlight text with a stylus pen, search for text in your digital book, and easily adjust the font size.

Jusy love this new updated sony ebook reader. Would be nice if you could read while it is connected to computer by usb cable. Also, a car charger would be nice addition for long trips. Exceptionally easy to download books to read.

I had been looking at these, but was too conservative to take the plunge. I had already settled on Sony's Reader over the Kindle but was hesitant to shell out the cash. My wife surprised me for Christmas and I am so glad she did.

SO ... Christmas morning when my husband unwraps his gift, well you can see where this is going. Since I had it engraved SONY policy is no ... Read More

Today I received a PRS700 for Christmas. It came as a surprise, as I read a lot, but not very many books. Still, as I have used my girlfriends Kindle I figured it would be nice to have. However, within an hour of trying it I put it back into the box to be returned. As with many things, there were some good and bad points. First the good. Page turns were noticeably quick compared to my experiences with the Kindle. I also like the clean layout that allowed you to hold it like a book without fear ... Read More
