Hi,
I'm new to the forum and new to eReaders. I live in Brazil and have never even seen one 'in the flesh'.
I have found some reasonable prices for Bookeens and Sonys over here but don't know which to choose.
Could someone please explain to me the difference(s) between the Opus and Gen 3, which is better and why I should (or shouldn't) prefer them to the Sony PRS505?
I have a lot of books in ePub format so it is necessary that the unit I choose reads this. I don't care too much about storing and organising many books on the unit as I will only be reading 2 or 3 at a time. I also don't care about online access etc. I just want a reliable, robust reader with a good quality e-ink screen.
Thanks for your time.
