It can do a lot but making getting a reader to display character sets it doesn't support takes real magic and not of the coding variety.

I suggest you make sure the reader can display the kind of text you want natively before committing to anything. Magical formats are only as good as the reader that renders them.

If you really need to display chinese ebooks and the Sony doesn't support chinese characters then you either give up on the ebooks or give up on Sony, right?

I will definitely check the Sony reader at mall today, because I would need to be able to read chinese for sure either with or without 3rd party supports.

Do either of the one has a wide 3rdp software supports? And lets say If I decide on Kindle 3, should I get the wifi or wifi + 3gs? my situation is that I live in Toronto (canada), doing most reading at home, and I already have lots of books in txt and html (from online) which I won't be seeing myself buying online books.

thanks
