Have you ever gone somewhere where you wished you had brought a book?  Or maybe you go on vacation and realize that you did not bring enough books, either because you forgot, or because you did not have enough room to pack them.  Those days are over thanks to the Sony Reader PRS-600.  The Sony Reader PRS-600 is a digital eBook reader featuring a touch screen and a massive internal flash drive.  With a profile of only 0.1 inches thick and weighing less than 10 ounces, the Sony Reader PRS-600 gives you the portability of a regular paperback book, but the storage capacity of up to 350 digital books.  The touch screen lets you turn pages and bookmark a page, wile the revolutionary E Ink technology makes reading the Sony Reader PRS-600 easy, even when out in the sun.  The Sony Reader PRS-600 also gets up to two weeks of continuous use out of a single battery charge.

The Kindle, created by e-commerce giant, Amazon, is a revolutionary new take on the traditional book. The Kindle is essentially a portable eBook reader that only weighs 10.3 ounces, and is only 0.7 inches thick. It is about the same size as a regular paperback book with a much slimmer profile.

With the Kindle, you can hold and carry over 200 eBooks around with you at one time. The real innovation of the Kindle comes from its electronic paper technology, that acts similar to real paper and does not use a backlight or get a glare on its surface. Similar to a book or newspaper, the screen uses ink to display the words, except this ink is electrically charged. This means that you get the look and feel of reading text printed on paper.

Another one of the Kindle’s features is its wireless functionality. Instead of Wi-Fi, the Kindle operates on cellular networks, so you can have access to the entire eBook library wherever you have coverage.
