Product Description
Bundle includes the Sony eReader (PRS-505), AC Adapter (AC-S5220E) and Sony Black Cover (PRSPLC02/B) - Here's good news for people who love books. The Reader Digital Book by Sony is an amazing innovation that allows you to carry a library of books in a device as small as a paperback. Don't worry about trying to choose which books to take along when you travel - now you can take them all. No matter what type of book you're in the mood for, your favorite titles are right there at your fingertips. Sony Reader Review - Lee Gomes of the Wall Street Journal, 9/5/07 "It is a truth universally unacknowledged that reading a book for pleasure involves a lot of hard work," writes reporter Lee Gomes of the Wall Street Journal. "You have to fight to keep it open and pressed flat, and just when you've comfortably arranged everything, you have to turn the page and start all over again. Naturally, you need to do all this without bothering the cat." "Not so with the Sony Reader," as Gomes notes, "The Sony Reader is slim, light and can be held in one hand. To go to the next page, you just nudge it with your thumb." Gomes is impressed at the readability of the Reader, describing how the resolution is much higher than on a desktop monitor, because of Sony's use of E Ink. The Reader's monochrome display reflects ambient light rather than being back lit, so it's readable in bright light."

5 out of 5 stars My wife loves it   September 30, 2008
I gave this to my wife for her birthday. I was a little afraid at first because she is not very good with the internet, computers and electronics. She loves it!!! Last night she spent at least three hours reading a book she downloaded without my help. It's very easy to use and read. The font can be enlarged which is great for people in their mid 40's. It would be nice if the screen had a back light but this would use the battery up a lot faster. I've only here her say one thing bad and that's that she can't charge the battery and read at the same time.

Smarthouse shipped it as promised without any problems at all.
