do i don't i
alright ladies and gents thought i might pick your brain. My soon to be wife reads a lot of books so i'm contemplating getting her a 505 reader but as a avid gadgeter i'm a little concerned if the 505 is decent and if it's got the legs to stay around for a while if not what else could you suggest.

Welcome to MobileRead.
I feel that the Sony Reader has legs and will be around for a while. Also the Cybook Gen3 is a great choice. Both have the same great screen. Some like the Amazon Kindle. A lot depends on where you live and your sources for books. So where do you live (country) and what types of books to you (or your wife) want to read? |

Hi lordzod01 and welcome to the Forum. I've got a Sony 505 and am very pleased with it. It holds 160 or so books plus another 1000 or more on the 2gig memory stick I got from Staple for $35.
Check out the 'Which One Should I Buy?' Section in the EBook Forum on this site for help and advice. |
