I love my Sony T1 ereader!

I do. I just love my Sony T1. I have a black one, which I put a simple root on. I did so for a variety of reasons, and I am happy with it. I currently have close to 3000 books on it. I put in a 2gig SD card, but there are no books on it yet.

I finally got all my settings in Calibre right, so now when I tap Books, or Collections and then view the books in the collection, the title is listed, and below is the author (last,first) and the series and #. Wow! That is fantastic! SO much better than my Kindles!

I like the Sony so much, in fact, that I bought another one! This one is not rooted. I love it! The books appear as described above. There is a known issue of fonts not showing the formatting, unless you stick to the Original font. It actually shows real page numbers, though! On my rooted one, it shows page numbers and the percentage read, which I really like, but they are not "real" page numbers. That one has over 400 books on it. Also a 2 gig card.

My Sony T1's are fantastic! I would recommend them to anyone looking for an ereader, and that extends to the new T2 as well, which is essentially the same device.

In contrast, I played with a working demo of a Kindle Touch for about 5 mintutes last week (most stores have non-working demos!) and I didn't like it. No buttons, no thanks. I like everything about my Sony better. The only thing Amazon does better is the archive of personal documents. However THAT leads to problems, hence me having two accounts with a Kindle on each....and a major reason why I chose the Sony over the Kindle Touch. The Sony is so much better. Of course the Amazon ebook store is superior! But if one knows how to put an Amazon book on a non-Amazon device, that is not a problem.

Anyway I was glad to find an open box (i.e. brand new) red Sony T1 for $85, and bought it instantly. Totally worth it having two of these babies. I've got erotica, paranormal romance and UF on the black one. I've got SF, Fantasy, romance suspense, contemp romance, historical romance and m/m romance on the red one.

One of these days I'll have to try a library loan on the Sony.

Still waiting to see if Amazon releases a Kindle touch with a HD screen resolution. I think I am done for buying ereaders this year, though! I got the black Sony for my birthday in March, followed by a Kindle Fire (who can resist $139 refurb from Amazon?). And now the red one. Plus my two Kindle Keyboards, one of which I don't use much at all.
