Without knowing which country you live in (it helps if you add it to your profile!), it's difficult to be specific.
These days, most dedicated bookreaders use electrophoretic displays, more popularly called "eInk". This is a non light-emitting, and complete "static" display technology - like reading printed words on paper. Truly excellent for comfort.
The most popular eInk devices which can be used world-wide are, in no particular order:
- The Sony Reader (aka "Sony PRS505")
- The Bookeen CyBook Gen3
- The iRex iLiad
Plus, if you happen to be one of the 5% of the planetary population who lives in the US, there's the Amazon Kindle, but that's obviously of little relevence to most people, who can't buy it.
Really all of these are excellent devices - you can't really go wrong with any of them.
Best thing to do is to browse the forums for a while and see what's what. You'll soon pick up lots of info.
Hope that's of some help to you.
