Sony PRS-700
The Sony PRS-700 is possibly the most stylish reader on the market. The touch-screen removes all of those buttons that clutter every other reader on the market. As of now it is one of the two E-book readers that offers touch-screen capabilities. This is set to change, though, as Samsung prepares for the launch of their reader “Papyrus”.
The integration of the touch-screen and the ability to use hand gestures sure do add to the likability of this reader. The touch screen allows you to navigate throughout the menus and change your page with the tip of your finger. If changing through menus or turning pages with your hands bothers you, Sony has included a stylus. However, with the addition of the touch-screen you will find that the screen now has a bit more of a glare.
One of the many great additions you will find with Sony’s latest reader is that they have added a LED reading light. It isn’t as bright as common backlights and because of this it takes up much less of your batteries life. This feature is perfect for being able to read comfortably in your room at night without the need of a lamp.

Kindle DX
What I liked:
For only the third gadget Amazon has ever made, the Kindle DX is an amazing achievement. Build quality is first class and the wireless shopping experience is swift, seamless and good value (including many free books). The large, crisp screen makes reading totally immersive, especially if you need to read at a larger font size.
Text management features are generally clever and easy to use, and it’s handy to have free basic web browsing on board.
What I disliked:
For a luxury product, the Kindle DX can be sluggish at times, it also has harsh text-to-speech and simplistic MP3 functions which don’t feel fully engineered.
The Final Verdict:
Once you’ve experienced the ability to alter font sizes, look up words, bookmark, annotate and search text, you’ll never want to go back to dumb paper books. Downloading newspapers and books wherever and whenever you want is equally liberating.
The DX’s display is wonderfully easy on the eye, but less so on the hand and pocket – if you want an e-book reader for commuting, the 6-inch version will be far more practical.
