Amazon Kindle DX Review

kindle and Sony both keep arrival out with new models and good features -- such as the kindle 2 and Sony Prs 700, but this description will concentrate on the real differences between the kindle and the Sony eReaders regardless of which new or used model you choose.

First the big advantage of all e-readers over reading a book on a laptop or smart phone is that they all use the E-Ink display technology which is way easier on the eyes than finding at a computer screen.

When you read a reveal and the writer is talking about puny things like where the on-off switch is or how easy the volume control is to use or which reader has a more high-tech look, there is one thing you know for sure -- he can't find any earth-shattering differences to description on.

And the truth is that you can't go wrong with whether brand. I have used them both and they both fit my needs, but since you have to decide, there are a few differences you need to be aware of.

Here are the prominent differences to consider:

The Kindle has a slightly good display. It's easier to read and the Kindle 2 even has a smoother finding screen that looks more like a sheet of paper rather than the slightly grainy newspaper look of the older Kindles. There is a puny more glare to the Sony screen.

The Kindle joystick pilotage and buttons are somewhat awkward and not as easy to use as the Sony touch-screen.

The Kindle display has 16 shades of gray as compared to the 8 shades for the Sony. You can't tell the divergence when reading text, but you can see the divergence when viewing images. The 8 shades is a big revision over the earlier e-readers that only had 4 shades.

It's easier to scroll and turn pages with the Sony readers.

These are all minor things ...

The real divergence comes down to two things:

#1. How prominent is Internet connectivity to you and how prominent is the quality to download books immediately without having to associate your eReader to your computer? This free Internet connectivity feature of the Kindle allows you to use the dictionary or investigate something on Wikipedia while you're reading. Great for doing research. No big deal if you're just reading a novel.

#2. With the Kindle eReader you use their proprietary Azw format and Sony readers use the open source Epub format. With Sony you can download many books from your public library. With the Kindle you have entrance to a lot more books along with 500,000 free classics. Reading pdf files is easy with the Sony and you have to jump through some hoops to read pdf files with the Kindle.

Bottom line:The Kindle's wireless connectivity, quality to browse the Internet, slightly good display and larger selection of e-books (all of which you can download abruptly from approximately anywhere) all add up to make the Kindle my choice.

But my brother considered the same facts and bought a Sony eReader. As I said before, you can't go wrong with whether one.

The fact that you can always sell you e-reader on eBay and buy other one means you're not stuck with your decision.
