When you said you buy a lot of computer manuals in PDF, I was thinking "Oh no!" The Reader's 6" screen is not good for those computer manuals in PDF. In fact, just forget the Sony reads PDF. Just pretend that feature doesn't exist.

That said, if your eReader books are DRM protected, forget converting them over to the Sony. But it is a good thing that the Sony will NOT read eReader books as the line spacing is just a horrible mess on a larger screen. I've downloaded some free eReader books and found that on my computer screen I hated having a line space between each paragraph. Just indent normally.

There is no backlight because you cannot get the light to shine through. Imagine the reader as a paperback book. Try putting a backlight on one. You cannot do it for similar reasons.
