It's very pleasant on the eyes. I'm 45 pages in on a badly written fantasy novel (reads like something I'd have written in high school), but the novelty factor is enough that I'm going to finish the thing, I think. The print is dark gray on a light gray background, with good contrast. It reminds me more of a newspaper than a book. I like it, though!K.C.

Have a great weekend. I will be waiting to hear how it goes with this new fangled technology.Jamie Eyberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875759697016701358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034944370161032319.post-72709065102759933622009-03-13T15:14:00.000-04:002009-03-13T15:14:00.000-04:00I haz big jealous....How does the e-ink look?

I haven't made it down to the sony store to see one in person, I'm afraid if I did I'd leave with a hole in my pocket shaped like a $300 bill.Jeremy D Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16014827537536982326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034944370161032319.post-22042168634550184612009-03-13T14:41:00.000-04:002009-03-13T14:41:00.000-04:00If these stupid books don't download soon I'm temp...If these stupid books don't download soon I'm tempted to yank the cord out and give up. I'm not a patient person. Lucky you with your real books! Frankly, saying that an ereader gives instant gratification has so far not been the case. In the almost-three hours since I got it, the only words I've read on the thing are "Do not disconnect." I could have read a big chunk of a real book in the same amount of time.<BR/><BR/>Which actually is a pretty good idea, now that I think of it.K.C.
