Hi Mike. I swear by my wee Sony PRS-505. It's out of production now for some daft reason, but you can still pick one up in the Flea Market forum here at MR, eBay and elsewhere. It has a very high reputation with users at MR.

But you must take a look at all the advice in the *Which should I buy* forum here. Unbiased expert advice and all questions generously answered by those expert in each of the many readers out there. Much depends on what you will use your reader for. If it's merely for novels, you'll have absolutely no problems finding the perfect machine for you. If it's for more complex reading -- including, say, graphs and tables -- you would read another kind of device.

I was planning to take a stack of editing work into hospital with me on a netbook, Michael, and was about to load it all onto memory sticks yersterday when the motherboard on my PC died on me. So -- apart from a couple of hard copy ARCs I have to proof -- I only have bits and bats with me. Not sure now if I can get internet access in hospital. But at least I won't get bored. Lot's of books for recreational reading in my reader.

Also, it's pretty heavy surgery and I'm not sure I'll be up to much for a couple of weeks at least.

Cheers. Neil
