Hi all!

I'm wondering which one should I buy.

As for the format-conversion thing, I'm not that concerned, 'cause I'm quite used to computers (programming, networking,...), but I have some concerns:


I know about the price difference (250€ vs 100€, 'cause I live in Europe), but I'm more concerned about the size, the eye-stress, and weight.

I've looked around a lot, but I can't get to see a side-to-side photo with the prs-505 and the ebookwise. So, can somebody post a photo comparison?

How about the weight?

Also, I spend most of the time working on a monitor, and I'd like to save eye-stress when reading books. Will the ebookwise's resolution and backlight be stressfull for my eyes?

Also, I use windows, osx and linux. As I read, the prs-505 will be always identified as a mass storage devide (on any operating system). Is this so? Will the ebookwise also be detected as a mass storage device, or will I be tied up with it's Librarian?



thanks in advance
