Teknoblog.com – Sony’s digital book reader PRS-700 had beaten Amazon’s Kindle, the pioneer of this trend, in many areas. However, according to the editors of the MobileTechReview site, this device is far from perfection.

First, let’s count the good sides. Thanks to the touch screen, it is possible to turn pages with just a finger (or stylus stick) and take notes with the virtual keyboard. The response of the screen is quite good and moreover, it does not smudge. This device, which can read PDF and Word files, can also be used horizontally. Thanks to the LED lights placed on the edges of the screen, it is possible to read a book even in the dark.

Now the downsides… The contrast of the screen cannot reach that of its predecessors. It would be nice if there was a connection support like Bluetooth or WiFi. Since it is not, you can transfer documents to the device with USB disk or memory cards such as SD, MS Duo.

In short, there is no perfect digital book reader in the world yet. However, the gap of excellence in this field will be filled in a short time. You can access the MobileTechReview review (in English) from this link.
