Ebook Reading Devices - Review of the Top Two Products & Get Free Shipping

ebook reading devices

Ebook reading devices are more popular than ever. The ability to carry thousands of titles on a device that weighs less than 1 pound is just too tempting to pass up. Currently, there are two brands that are running pretty much head-to-head and beating the competition hands-down. In this article, you'll find a brief description of the top two ebook readers along with a comparison chart of their features, so you can choose the device that best fits your needs.

Ebook Reading Devices

The Amazon Kindle has a clean, streamlined design design that ebook readers are raving about. It can store 1500 books, all in a device that weighs just over 10 ounces and is as thin as a magazine. You can wirelessly download your favorite newspapers and magazines and blogs in one minute or less, no matter where you are on a 3G network. Approximately 285,000 ebook titles are available. Images are sharp, the screen is crisp and clean. This ebook reading device has a long battery life. You can read books on the Kindle: Amazon's 6 or you can listen as it reads to you. The device retails for less than $400.

A bigger version, Kindle DX: Amazon's 9.7 has a 9.7 inch screen and can hold 3500 titles.

The Sony ebook reading device has a 6 inch, touch screen display, using E-ink technology (Sony was the first to use this), which makes for easy reading even in bright sunlight. The device has the ability to adjust font size, turn pages by sliding your finger across the device and holds about 320 books. The screen is interactive and can also be used to write notes. Its automatic bookmarking feature lets you pick up right where you left off.

Since the Sony PRS-700BC Digital Book Reader w/ Accessory Bundle, ebook reading device supports a variety of file formats, you can purchase books from sources other than the Sony Connect Store. In addition to storing books, you can also store graphics, photos and mp3 files. Since Sony has entered into a partnership with Google Books, they currently have about half a million titles available for download.
