Sony never lets me down, although in price and flexibility of system (I mean being too restrict, too exclusive when it comes to accessories) I still go for it because the quality and design are simply outstanding. This ereader has a great improvement in handling the PDFs, I owned a PRS 600 and it is a lot more "pearl" like, I mean, the background is really light and the fonts are really dark and this contrast makes it even more similar to a paper. And the possibility to root it is a huge plus so it is possible to add more features. Overall I'm quite happy with mine and hope Sony keeps on using Android as a standard plattaform and includes new features out of the box in a near future. As a intense reader, this sort of device is just heaven! :D
First and foremost, I would like to begin by announcing that this is my first product review, and that mistakes and omissions are likely to happen. Now that I've fortified myself against review critics, I shall begin. The PRS-T1 is Sony's newest and most complete e-reader to date. Featuring a 6-inch, e-ink pearl display with a 16-level greyscale system and clear-touch infrared technology, the appearance is crisp and clear. For those who are yet to familiarise themselves with e-ink, I would clearly like to state that it is not backlit, and thus reading in dark conditions is undoable. Before one jumps to conclusions about this being inferior to the iPad reading experience, which offers backlight, it should be noted that Sony have been trying to imitate an actual reading experience by replicating the appearance of a book (which, of course, can only be read in sufficient lighting), therefore eliminating the possibility of a fair comparison. As for other functions - the battery life seems to have improved since previous versions, and I am soon to finish my second (middle-sized) book under a single charge. The Wi-Fi function remains untested for me, since I live outside the US and thus cannot borrow books from a library or download them from the online Store. All other functions can be looked up without having to further read my eloquent chattering, so I shall summarise this product below. Overall, having taken into consideration the price and the full list of specifications, I proudly claim that the PRS-T1 lives up to its expectations and does its job splendidly - a must-have for e-reader aficionado!Read full review
I decided to choose that model after read many web-side and my choose was difficult and I spend for It many time. I like read and in Russia is great serves where you can free download book different authors so I do not think that device will be lie on the sheld and won't be used. I know that device have a good display E-link Perl, best for that morment. You can read and you eys will be more healthy than other displays. It is ligth weight. I am not sure about battary I do not still use It. About the price: for simple reader it is expensive, especially it is expensive for Russian market, but here is wi-fi and in my country a place with free wi-fi became more: not just MacD or other but still you can find free wi-fi in park. So I am happy that bought that reader. Thank you.
A year and a half ago, after I browsed thru different products, I got me for Christmas this Sony ereader from Target. I love the fact that it has a Wi-Fi card in it, and it can read free epub books, and that it has an audio player. My daughter is eight and she devours books weekly. She does have a cheapo netbook, but I wanted her to share the same joy of mine of having a whole library of books on a reliable ereader. When I have the opportunity we open the same book and read outloud for an hour or more, alternating with each page. Sometimes we stop and wonder about the meaning of a word, but the good people from Sony put a dictionary in their ereader to help us. The reason I bought this ereader, not the newer version from Sony, was the fact that is had the capability of playing MP3 files. One day, when we get lazy, I’ll show my lil’ girl audio books from librivox... My younger boys got kindle fires, but I might get them ereaders too, just because the battery lasts for weeks. They’re not into reading though... but they like Sony PS3 a lot, I mean A LOT! Those Lego games...Read full review
I purchased this reader because of it's capability to directly down load ebooks from the library. It does do this but I found that the process is not very smooth. Other than the disappointment with the library interface, I found that the reader excellent at all other functions.

Perfect size - fits into my cargo pants pocket as well as into my wife's purse. Very responsive page turning. Adjustable font size. A great reader.

A fine ereader with many nice features. Only negative with the model is the need to carry a paper clip because sometimes, necessary to use to reboot the reader if the model freezes. it's no big deal, though, and is a pleasure to read with. Note taking feature is super, and I like the Home page, and Orientation mode. Also the dictionnary features are great with many foreign language dictionaries.

This ebook is an excellent gift for your girlfriend, because it is stylish, but white color is easily soiled. And you have to use cover for this book. You can work on the Internet using WiFi. But the greatest advantage is a text view on the display. You can change type and size of the letters. Disadvantages are concerned with glare panels on each side and on the bottom side of Sony PRS T1, but you can hide them under cover(not original) of the book.
Overall quality is great, the screen is clear, easy to read for long time, good battery life, perfect size for reading, and carrying it. Have also the WIFI, and the possibility to play mp3 (haven't tryed yet). the only default is the stylus that is separate from the reader (but you don't really need it).
It's been a while since this product was released by Sony. But that means it's good value now. Lots of room for books. It stores audio books/podcasts too, though sound amplification is challenged listening with earphones - so if you get for this reason, use it connect to a car speaker or home stereo system. I use Calibre ebook management because I don't like the online book vendors to manage my library. Works fine there too. In summary, good value!
