The Sony DPTS1 : perfect for my MSSQL and technical books
I've been a forum members for many years now. Used and bought several tables and eink readers, always struggling to find the best reader for my technical books. 6" readers were too small. Kindle DX born dead, basically. So my "winning" combo during past 2 or 3 years was a PaperWhite and an iPad air; one allows me to read non fiction books and the iPad with a PDF oriented app, handle my MSSQL and technical books.
Finally I bite the bullet and Wed I ordered the Sony DPTS1 via Amazon, 800 bucks. Today has been roughly 12 hrs since it arrived and I can't be happier! Yes, expensive, but perfect size for my technical books. Still learning how to use the UI, but once done, I certainly will write a short personal review giving my impressions, the god and the bad. |

I just love this thing!
I've been using it for several days now and it's the best reader I've had for PDFs; beats the ipad Air hands down. It is so light and comfortable with decent speed for page turns. It is the perfect size for PDF documents. And I can't believe how light this thing is. |
