Superb! July 17, 2010 lemon_spice I purchased a book reader for both myself and my husband after reading these reviews. I was very hesitant as it was a large outlay, but I can honestly say I have never regretted my purchase for one second. My husband is also thrilled with his ebook reader. Although I enjoy reading, it has made me read even more. The Sony Book Reader is superb and so easy to use. I bought the PRS - 505 as the touch model was not available, but I don't like the idea of a touch screen having had the experience that it does not work well in cold weather.
So simple to change the page, just click a little button placed at the perfect position. Unlike many other screens you do not get glare and there is a real look of paper when you read.
If you search the internet there are so many ebooks now available to purchase as well as lots on free websites too. You can also load pictures and music on the eBook if you wish too.
I am still excited by my book reader and I have now had mine for 18 months.
Enjoy!
Sony Reader July 11, 2010 Ron Clatworthy I am really pleased with this product, I get a lot of pleasure from it. Currently I have downloaded 53 books of various topics and they are available as and when I need them.
Initially I had difficulty downloading the books but I am a silver surfer and I think that anyone who is reasonably computer literate would not experience any difficulty.
Overall I feel it was money well spent.

disappointed December 14, 2009 SAFletcher 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
I bought this reader as soon as it was available in the UK, at first I loved it I am a big reader and always carry at least two books where ever I go as I have back problems the reader was great for carrying many books without much efford. At first there was a problem with not many books been available and only from Waterstones but over the months other places have come of line. So what is my problem I hear you ask, well I opened my reader up about 14months after buying it to find a small clear square about 2inches had appeared in the top right hand corner, and you could not read any words under this square. I contacted Sony and was told it would cost £176 to get it repaired I though as I had paid £199 for the reader this seemed a little steep more so as the new pocket reader was been sold for £150, also this held double the amount of books. Sony at first told me they would give me a good will payment which would help towards the cost of the repair, and then they refused to do this. I decided I would buy a new reader but on purchase found that you cannot transfer any books due to copywrite laws, the software is registered for one reader only and is not transferable. Therefore all new books which have been downloaded can not be used on the new readers, (a problem for anyone who likes to keep update with new technology) or who like me their reader has broke. Sony have not been helpful at all and maybe the reason they charge so much for repairs is because they know you dont have much choice the books are either wasted or read only on your computer.
Not enough books avalable November 6, 2009 H. E. Skinner (coventry) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a great piece of technology and I was delighted to recieve it for Christmas. However there aren't enough titles available and you have to buy from Waterstones. All titles are more expensive than the actual book, which I find ridiculous! A new book in Tescos will be half the price of an ebook on the waterstone's site so you're likely to buy the book! Needless to say I have largely stopped using it, Which is a shame . More competition would bring prices down and this would become far more popular
