"The act of reading books is ingrained in our DNA", that's a nice one. A few hundred years was enough to "ingrain" something in the DNA? Yeah right.

Apparently the art of fact checking is not ingrained in that authors DNA.

The picture in the upper left of the article is the old Sony Librie. Didn't even do enough homework to get a picture of the PRS-505.

The text of the article even said "Sony Libre".

In the next few months? Easily? Was he just pulling stuff out of his ass while writing this? Dear God...

With flexible e-ink displays it would be cool if a pocket sized reader was released by Sony. But I'm not sure I would consider the current one pocket size. I might be american but I'm not wearing pants that large...... yet.

Also a 200GB hard drive and 200,000MB of memory would be a wee bit of an over kill for a reader I think. Do the ipods have 200GB capacities, even the video ones?

The 505 is a perfect size for what the US call Cargo Pants, or for the map pocket in Craghopper trousers.
