Sony Reader Pocket Edition PRS-350 review
Like its larger siblings in Sony's latest line of e-readers, the Sony Reader Pocket Edition employs Sony's unique optical technology to allow fingers to tap away.
For a small-screen e-reader, the new Sony Reader Pocket Edition is one of the best models you can buy - but you'll pay extra for Sony's unique touchscreen design.

Sony eBook Reader Pocket Edition : Sony PRS-350 E-Book Reader Pocket Edition
Unlike the earlier version of this – that I was ashamed to be seen with in public – I have been happy to be seen reading this in public. In case you are wondering why the first one needed to be used in private it was PINK.
There is a Quick Start Guide with the first eight pages in English and this should enable even a novice to get going. The only other item in the box is the 1.2metre micro USB to USB lead that provides battery charge and the ability to add books and...

Sony - Reader Pocket PRS-350
With the Apple iPad making a splash when it launched earlier this year, and Amazon enjoying continued success with its Kindle device, e-book readers are a boom business. So much so that Sony wants to have ...
As we noted at the outset, Amazon's Kindle is really the one to beat when it comes to e-book readers. And the Sony Reader Pocket PRS-350 may not quite have the Kindle's clout, but it does offer some notable advantages of its own, including better...

Sony downsizes Amazon's Kindle
Well designed, lightweight and compact chassis, easy to use, good format support
No memory expansion options
launched an e-reader assault on Amazon, and this time it's aiming to beat its rival in terms of size. With a 5-inch screen, the PRS-350 is a fair bit smaller than the 6-inch Kindle, measuring 104.3 x 145 x 8.5mm compared to the Kindle's 123 x 190 x...

Sony Reader PRS-350 review,Pocket-sized device has a compact and lightweight design, but lacks wireless connectivity, technology news from Dan Worth at v3.co.uk
Well designed; lightweight and compact chassis; easy to use; long battery life; good format support
No memory expansion options; no wireless or 3G connection; more expensive that Kindle 2 with Wi-Fi and 3G
The Sony Reader PRS-350 is a compact, stylish and well designed device. Combining a simple design with a small form factor means that those previously put off from buying an e-book reader may reconsider, especially frequent business travellers. The...

Sony Reader Pocket Edition PRS-350SC review
Among the small 5 inch-screen e-reader set, which includes models from lesser known makers such as Aluratek and Bookeen, Sony has leaped to the head of the pack. If you want your e-reader in a paperback size, the Sony Reader Pocket Edition is the best...

Review: Sony PRS-350 E-Reader
Sony tries its hand at touchscreen tech and E-Readers. The result is a mighty strange device not without a few flaws.
Compact design is both eye-catching and travel-friendly. Touchscreen makes highlighting passages and notation a breeze. Sixteen contrast levels makes outdoor reading a cinch. Screen stays smudge-free even after numerous swipes. Battery only needs a...
Missing Wi-Fi and 3G makes it too expensive. Sony’s online store leaves a lot to be desired. Comes in robotic silver or cartoonish pink. No headphone jack means no audio books. Cheap-feeling buttons and stylus are unforgivable
