eReaders

[wellinghall]

We are thinking of getting eReaders, particularly with various short- and long- haul trips that are coming up over the next few months. What experience have you had of them so far?

I have used two very briefly - kargicq's (though I can't remember what it was), and a colleague's Kindle (which half my FList seem to have had for Christmas!) I liked them both.

Obligatory link to my post of useful things for ebook readers. :-)

I've really enjoyed having my Sony PRS-505 - being able to carry several hundred books worth of reading material in one unit was a godsend on holiday, and I didn't need to recharge it all week.

Obligatory '+1' from another happy PRS-505 user. I think they've been discontinued in favour of the smaller models now, but I endorse what Lousie says a few posts above this one. (Although -- re (g) -- mine holds charge when in sleep mode for about two weeks.)
