Title: Practical and usable technology
Product review: I've tried the Sony eReader PRS-700 and now the Kindle DX. I'm a programmer and print large volumes of tech documents. No more!Here is what I've found after using both.What makes Kindle DX better the PRS-700:Faster page turnsBetter contrastDownloadable e-content using Amazons WhispernetReal keys for keyboardAuto-rotate featuresBuilt-in dictionaryWhat makes the Sony PRS-700 better than the Kindle DX:PriceExpandable memoryNavigation of e-content is easier using book collectionsDesktop software the helps manage your e-contentHere's what they both lack:A comprehensive program to manage e-content, e.g. Microsoft Media player. Sony's software is very weak.My choice is definitely the Kindle DX. The larger display and Whispernet helped. I'd really like to see some good management software for the Kindle though.
