• Like this post.

• What an excellent post and strategy, beloved it – exciting stuff!

• This phenomenal information like I read made me have more observation , more or less anybody offline. We need to thank you for

  your across the board range like information to share at their side thank you

• Thank you for taking the time to publish this information very useful ! I’m still waiting for some interesting thoughts from your side in your next post thanks.

• Great blog here, such a wealth of content.

• Good post. This is a very interesting article.

• Cybook? Great if you can get it to work. I had one and loved it for the first 3 days, then it developed an intermittent screen flaw that meant that sometimes it would turn on and other time forget it. And don’t get me started on the ‘customer care’! Also the page turning system is very fiddly and some features just don’t work.

• The Kindle 2 is great; though quite gimmicky. The one drawback is that it doesn’t support pdf format; which for a travelling businessman may be quite a disadvantage. New touch screen sony is meant to be good.Has anyone tried it? For a more comprehensive list you can check through a good resource site, for comparison of ebook readers: http://www.electronicbookreaders.co.uk

• I bought a Sony EBook for traveling. We spend two months a year in Mexico and I have truly enjoyed having my Reader here. It is so easy and comfortable to use I forget it’s electronic. I even find myself trying to use a bookmark when I stop reading. I have had no problems downloading books and Classics cost $1.50 a book. I love mysteries and there are tons available in the Bookstore. The book stays charged for days. I would recommend the Reader to anyone who loves to read and doesn’t have a bookstore close by.

• I live in Canada so have no knowledge of anything but the Kindle and the Reader. I own the reader 505 (have heard the 700’s touch screen makes it harder to read but the added back light is nice). I love it and could not care less that it has no wireless connectivity; it takes less than 5 mintues to buy and sync a book onto your Reader. Between that and the many many free books you can find with little effort on the net, I can easily put 100 books on my Reader and have somthing to read for any occasion. While I do not get anywhere near the 7500 page turns, I can usually read at least 3 or 4 longish books (~1000 turns each) between charges. The only advantage I (or people I know who own one) see for the Kindle over the Reader is that you can get newspapers and magazines. P.S. The reader really does look nice and has page turn buttons on both sides for easy one handed reading, whereas the Kindle is ugly and the keyboard annoying.

• To me, the Kindle missing PDF support is an heavy missing feature..

  And a couple of comments on the article:
  1 – why the kindle size is in inches while the others in mm?
  2 – you should add also an “usability” paragraph (explaining why iliad is “clunky” to use)

• thanks for posting this. one quick correction. the kindle doesn’t require being in a wifi zone because it works on Sprints EVDO network.

• This is the first review that really had I need. I think in my case I will go for the Bebook. Still will have to compare with the Cybook. Tks

• Just to add, I use a BeBook and it’s also comfortable with MobiPocket and allows you to buy books from MobiPocket stores to read on it.

• Aw no Cybook? Based on your criteria it would have been the winner :)

  The iLiad officially supports up to 4Gb CF cards with 8 and 16Gb unofficially supported. It also supports drag and drop installation of books, there is no requirement to install the companion software.

  Where was the Kindle tested? I was under the impression that the EVDO connectivity made it its biggest selling point all but useless outside of the US.

• What about using iphone or ipod touch as a reader? I wonder how it fares.
