Sony's Portable Reader does away with books
The Lord of the Rings is not the smallest book in the world to have to
lug around on holiday and with the Sony Portable Reader set to launch next
month, you may not have too anymore.
Picture being able to carry around up to 80 books in one slim,
electronic reader that is just half an inch thick and weighs 9oz. 
The reader is
built using E-Ink Electronic Paper and spots a 6in screen. Although it only has
64Mb of memory, that’s enough for 80 books but there is a slot for both SD
Memory cards and Memory Stick media whichmeans this number can be greatly
increased.
Formats supported include BBeB Book, Adobe PDF, TXT, RTF, Microsoft Word, BBeB Book (Marlin) MP3, AAC7, JPEG, GIF, PNG, and BM.
i want to buy such device, but it is too expensive. £200 - is not for me. i've heard, there'll be such colour book (they are in the process of development) - that'll be really cool
