The conclusion he did make, concerning the fact that the MP3 player was as good as any MP3 player made me think that he didn't really use it at all and makes me wonder if he really used the reader other than a 5-minute "I already know I don't like it but I'll use it so that I won't be completely lying in my review of this product I'm already prejudiced against."
the MP3 player part of the Sony Reader sucks horribly and is most definitely NOT as good as any MP3 player.
As to the other comments others have made here about the length of time opening books and using the sony Library software, I agree -- this reviewer started by not wanting to find positive things about the reader and so didn't bother learning how to use it properly before writing his review.
Which is fine except that many people who haven't tried the reader may read that and not even bother to look further at the Sony reader, but will quote that review to others as if it is the gospel truth about the Reader, so it will have further reach in its negativity than simply being an on-line incompetent review seen by only a few.
