At the moment, I have a 4inch E-book reader in my hand, may I know, if someone else have some good E-book readers to recommend ?
Such as some smallest or lightest E-book reader you known. :
I'm currently reading on a Kindle Keyboard. I'm making sure it's good before passing it on down the line. (Actually, I like it quite a bit, I might hang on to it.)

Not only that, the Aura has a much smaller outside dimension than the STG.
But does it have the page turn buttons?

No, but the poster said they were considering it, so I wanted to point out how much smaller it is.

In office sometimes I use my desktop with calibre reader. At home I was using my laptop and later on my 10" tablet.

Last year my wife got a Kindle PW1 and I got hooked it. Due to the difficulty in sharing with her, I got myself a used Nook ST for $30 and fell in love with it immediately. My only complaint with it is the lack of internal light, as I do a lot of reading on my bed. Now it has become my primary reader. I prefer EPUBs to MOBIs as they are easy to edit on Sigil.

Now I have set my eyes on Kobo Aura HD, waiting for the right opportunity to get it. That will be my ultimate reader so far.

I'm transitioning back to a Sony PRS-505, my second one after the battery wore out with my original one. Like with readerlover, I like the physical buttons and also the following: the interface, the clear and sharp e-ink screen, and the size (large enough screen for ereading, while the itself device is the right size for easy carrying).

I've had/have many other ebook readers, such as: Kobo Touch, Nook Color, Nook HD+, Sony PRS-500, Sony PRS-600, and Sony PRS-T1. However, for me none of them has been as good as the PRS-505 when it comes to ebook reading.

Mostly Sony Xperia Z Ultra (great for the bath as it's waterproof) with the Google Play Books app, sometimes iPad Mini Retina with same app, also Sony PRS-350 which I still love.

I'm a bit concerned about the effect on eyesight and sleep patterns with the LCD backlit screens, so try to use the Sony PRS-350 in the later evening. It doesn't do email or web though, so may look at the Onyx T68.

My main reader is a Paperwhite 2. I use my Nook ST as a backup when my wife is borrowing the Kindle or if I'm reading at the beach.

At home I read on the Kobo Aura HD

Hi @all,

because the display is large and shows a lot of text. When traveling, I use the Sony PRS-T1, because he has an audio interface, with which I can cover the environmental noises.

I find it incredible that no current eBook reader has a headphone jack.

I'm currently reading on two devices: a Nexus 7 LCD tablet, and an Onyx T68 Lynx eInk Android tablet. On both devices I have my full library, managed by the wonderful Calibre Companion, and am using Moon+ to read books with.

Preferred reader for on-the-go and most general reading: Kobo Mini. Also enjoy reading on the Sony PRS-350 or 650 because I love their form factor (metal & substantial weight), plus I have the lighted covers so I these are my go-to readers when not in good lighting.

I have my trusty iPad for reading magazines on Zinio and/or larger image-intensive stuff (home design mags/books). I also just picked up an original Kobo Arc for a very good deal. I can't call it an eReader as it's not an eInk device, but it's definitely a lovely little tablet!

The contrast on modern eInk screens is enormously better than on that of the PRS-505. I'm surprised that you don't find this to make a difference.
