Yet, with memory cards you are wrong. Even the oldest and least compatible Sony Reader PRS-500 you could use Sony Memory Stick OR standard SD card. I know, there was older Sony Librié, that was even less compatible, but that was available only for Japanese market.

With Sony reader you will get your money worth.


I own PocketBook 360°. It has *all* you ask for. SD card support, user-replaceable battery, great snap-on cover, it is really small and very ergonomic. But, (you knew there would be a but, didn't you ;-) ), it is not simple reader. It has huge number of configurable options. It supports large number of formats, it has several alternative versions of reading software, lots of themes, dictionaries and other stuff available.
The but is no but to the 360°, as there is no duty to use all the possibilities. You are free to upload your favourite format and just read using only the page forward button.

Also as Kacir pointed out, the Sony takes any brand of SDHC cards up to 32GB additionally to its 2GB internal storage that is good for at least 1,200 books.
