New Sony Reader Ads: "Fit 80 books in your carry-on" - Page 3

My Sony Reader never gets noticed in public. The iLiad though, everyone thinks I've got some huge ancient PDA and they make comments like "Were those old Palm Pilots really that big"?

Now that Paris is headed for jail maybe she should be taking a Sony Reader with her to pass the time? Get on it Sony!

I only jest; guess they are preaching to the allready converted

Seriously, I accept we do need the product to suceed or we will have another bunch of ebooks that are as useful as 8 track audio cartridges. I recently spent $50 on books for my Palm T|X got hooked and ordered up the Sony Reader and now have to reby the bl))dy books again. I think I am going to start buying everything in MS Reader format and converting to .lit using Book Designer. Sony Reader should arrive today - I hope !

Didnt I see a lot of post from you i the Illiad forum? Seem to recall you gave up on the product in the end. I seriously considered buying one but was concerned it could finish up a dead duck with the inherant hardware issue like battery life and reliability. ... Keith
