Hi Guys,

As before mentioned in one of my post, I have an iRiver Cover Story which I mainly use for reading books and Manga. I'm thinking of purchasing a PRS-T1, found about rooting it, so Manga is no longer a problem. But just wanting to ask is it really worth replacing if I have a perfectly good working ebook? The only difference between the PRS-T1 is the infared touch tech. (Cover Story is Touch too) and 16 level greyscal, Cover Story is only 8 level but I read perfect from it.

Also I do read Korean and Japanese ebooks from text files but know sony doesn't support unicode atm.

I'd like to hear from everyones opinion and also from people who may have had a similar situation with their 8 level greyscale ereaders that mainly use it for reading.
