Sony unveils two new e-readers

I wonder if Sony will be able to wipe out a book someone has purchased without their authorization just like what can happen with a Kindle :)

Also, you have to wonder why these things have built-in memory instead of allowing the use of memory cards. Well, I suppose they don't want people using 'unapproved' copies of books would be why but that only makes it unlikely that I will ever own an ebook reader of these types.

Seriously though, what the hell is Sony thinking with 512MB of memory. You would be stupid to shell out 300 dollars for that piece of shit. I'll just have to be happy with (continuing) reading ebooks on my DS. The smaller screen size doesn't bother me ;)

They did the polar opposite of what I was hopng. Not only are these ugly, but they're the same size and one is smaller. Not only that but the touchscreen makes text blurry. Damn it, Sony. I was hoping for a 9-inch one. No touchscreen. The 505 model is GREAT but a bit too small for Graphic novel PDFs. Ugh.

i was contemplating a Sony e-reader, but no, i went with a Kindle instead. See, even with the latest cheaper e-reader, Sony still didn't include any wireless feature. Using a computer to dump reading material on the e-reader is fine, but not as convenient as delivered to you wirelessly... Of course, i do like Sony e-readers ability to read PDFs natively (the Kindle doesn't, but the DX does). Also, the additional memory slot (but it's too damn slow).
