The Sony Reader is expected to bring a whole new meaning to “book smart.” Coupling an innovative electronic paper display with precise one-handed navigation and a stylish, durable design, the Sony Reader will allow active readers to carry as much as they want to read whether they are traveling on the road or just around the corner. Roughly the size of a paperback novel, but thinner than most (about .5 inches thin), the device can store hundreds of books in internal memory with the addition of an optional Memory Stick or Secure Digital (SD) card. The electronic Reader can also store and display personal documents in Adobe PDF format, favorite web content like blogs or news feeds, and JPEG photos.

The Reader: An Innovative Reading Experience

There’s good news for people who love books. Sony proudly introduces the Reader, an amazing innovation that allows you to carry a library of books in a device as small as a paperback. Don’t worry about trying to choose which books to take along when you travel-now you can take them all. No matter what type of book you’re in the mood for, your favorite titles are right there at your fingertips.

Small as a Paperback

Measuring about the size of a paperback, the lightweight Reader easily slips into your bag or briefcase, allowing you to enjoy your favorite books wherever you are. Weighing only about eight ounces1, traveling with the Reader is much more convenient than conventional books. And since its rechargeable battery powers you through up to 7,500 page turns2, you’re ready for the long haul.

Hold 80 Books at a Time

Never leave the house without a full selection of bestsellers. Since the Reader stores about 80 books with its built-in memory, you can take all of your favorites with you and let your mood decide which author you want to read next. And if you need more space, there’s even a slot for optional removable Memory Stick® media for greater storage possibilities.
