Also they now only make electronic paper PDF corporate things,
no ereaders.
Back in 2005 to 2011 they were a good choice. The T1 seems to have been the beginning of the end (they made strange decision, for Sony, to switch to Android). By the end of 2014 they were gone. Soon be six years ago.
I do like my PRS350 for taking out, but the Kindle PW3, Kobo H2O original, Nook Simple Touch and now Kobo Libre are all better than the Sony PRS-T1. I'm not sure that my short lived iRiver Cover Story wasn't
nearly as good as the T1.
I nearly bought a second hand Sony T2, to loan out. I decided it wasn't worth it. I have the Kobo H2O, Nook Simple Touch and Kobo Touch N905C for loaning out. Admittedly the display can be poor on the Kobo Touch N905C, but it works better than the PRS-350 does or the T1 did, better sw than Nook ST or Cover Story too.
