I like the Reader alot but the display isn't just like paper though. Paper you can read in low light but the reader you will difficulty since the text is black on light grey and it doesn't reflect enough light to be easily visible in low light.

Aside from that it's a great ebook reader. I've been saving alot of paper since I used to print any long texts I had to read and bought paper books on a weekly basis. Now I just load it up on the reader. Also, there are some great tools available like Web2book that lets you automatically format and sync RSS content onto your reader. You should definitely check out the Sony Connect page before buying to see if the titles are to your liking. Sony stills screws up sometimes though because some of their books have obvious formatting errors.
