I have a Sony 505 with a lighted case at home. It's neat. But I couldn't imagine trying to use the thing.

There's a reason I wasn't interested in e-readers before the Nook STwG came out.
but the sony has one built-in feature that others have to be hacked for it to work. this feature is the ability to use your own images as the standby screen. i actually planned to use one older device (prs-500) for a door sign or a static photo display with this feature.

the other use for this, especially the smaller prs 300/350, is to hold images of shopping cards with bar codes so that i don't have to carry all these cards.

seriously, what is the problem with this feature that kobos/nooks/kindles don't include it built-in?
