I started reading ebooks with the 770, and have progressed to the 800 - greater potential storage. I also own the Sony original US reader. I find the Nokia great - FBreader allows just about any document to be read (if not native, ABC lit converter will change it to a compatible format). I've read hundreds of books on these Nokia devices, and have never been dissatisfied. People have seen me using it, have queried me on the device, and have ultimately bought one on more than a few occasions. It will fit in a pocket, and does so many other things (LINUX). If you really don't want to waste money on a kindle or Sony, try the Nokia. You can get them for a steal, too! PS. I have no vested interest in the company...Just finished "Golden compass," "Subtle Knife," and "Kitchen Confidential." With the backlit screen, you can read in low ambient light...
Cheers!
