The paper version of The Times has a story called "Reading a book: aids and alternatives in gizmo form" on the Sony Reader today.
- The good: 7,500 page turns on a single charge; screen isn't glaring, stores about 80 books.
- The bad: It's a lot of money to pay for a good read.
- Verdict: Sony's eBook is about to be launched in the US and a backlog of orders has built up already.
- Score: 4/5
