    Comments about Sony 6" Digital E Ink White Reader:

    First time with e reader. I just wanted an ereader no bells and whistles or games. Had a problem with loading up library books and free ebooks from Guttenberg site. Great telephone support from Sony.
    Would highly recommend this Sony reader. I also bought a cover for it, makes it read like a book and protects the screen. Light weight and easy to put into purse. USer friendly buttons and instruction manual is well done. Could use a few more explanations.
    I like that you can write notes on pages, highlight sections,book mark pages, and write notes to keep in e reader..I had looked at another ereader and was not happy with the navigation. This was mostly intuitive.
    Happy reading !!
