OK. You've convinced me.
Sony reader doesn't met my needs cause:
(1) I am too peaky. Since I came after another e-book reader, not after plain paper books. So I have too much "harmful" knowlege of what ebook reader should look like. My goddamn ELEVATED expectations!
(2) I am not supposed to have too many books at once because they are bloody expensive at Sony online store. I am also not supposed to have ebooks in format other than I can buy at Connect store. These are BAD books in WRONG formats. If I'll make an attempt to read PDF they will spoil my eyes (zoom = 200% and pan will never happen). HTML and XML is forbidden because it is intended to support different encoding and languages while being readable on screen (see bullet 4).
(3) I was thinking that this device is actually for READING the books, but it actually designed just for SELLING books via CONNECT store.
(4) Multi-language support is bad idea, OTHERRRR-language-speaking-and-reading citizens has no respect to an INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY - they want just OUR READER, but not gonna pay for the BOOKS.
