From the BookFinder.com Journal.
As Anirvan mentioned, I recently bought a Sony Reader. Here’s my take:
The first thing that really strikes you about the Reader is the screen. The new electric paper technology really delivers. The screen is not backlit, so it requires external light in order to read. It’s supposed to more closely mimic paper, and it gets close. When I first booted the device, my roommate asked me if the screen still had a sticker on it–that’s how nice the screen looks. I’ve been using the device at home and on the bus, and have never had problems reading it.

Interesting to see how it goes down with students.
