Sony announced that it will release the Reader Pocket Edition by the end of August. Like the Kindle and Sony’s previous Readers, the Pocket Edition will come with an “electronic ink” display, which shows dark gray text on a lighter gray background. As the word “pocket” implies, its five-inch screen will be smaller than that on the Kindle and other Sony models.
Unlike other Readers, the Pocket Edition won’t play digital music files, and it won’t have a slot for a memory card to supplement internal storage that can hold 350 books.
Why spend more money to buy Kindle, if you can save money to buy more e-books.
You save at least $129 to buy Foxit eSlick at $229.99. Compare to price of Kindle
“Readers now have another choice in digital books,” said Steve Haber, president of Sony’s Digital Reading Business Division.”This new model has the eye popping design and intuitive functionality that people have come to expect from Sony.” The new model, PRS-700, will join the PRS-505 model in the Reader family to give consumers a choice of how they would like to read electronically.
