Looking for other electronics to compare at CES Amazon Kindle Wireless Reading Device vs. Sony Reader Digital Book PRS700BC
So I wanted to get my parents one of the totally awesome new Kindles by Amazon for Christmas but to my dismay I log on to find out they are backordered 11 to 13 weeks! In my frantic state to find a replacement gift I checked out Sony’s offering and found to be disappointed. Physically it is great, small and light and the display is easy to read with customizable font size. As far as the capabilities go, it is just lacking, you can buy books and load them to the reader but that is where the comparisons end. The Kindle is wireless and can load books from anywhere, the Sony has to be connected to a computer, boo. The Kindle also has a large list of newspapers and blogs loaded automatically every day, this feature is not even considered on the Sony. So I will wait it out and get it for them later because I cannot bring myself to spend more on the Sony for less of a product.
