Anyone on my flist uses an ereader? There's an extended boxing day sale on Best Buy and I am very tempted to get the Sony Pocket Ereader (the pink one! Hah!).

The pocket ereader isn't really that big and I can imagine it like carrying an extra wallet around (but a lot thinner).

I've tried audiobooks/podfics but tbh the novelty wears off reaaally fast LOL. I was into them for awhile but nothing really beats reading for me. I already read fics during my commute that I load on my iPhone before going into the subway but the print is so small and I hate zooming in on Safari that I've noticed that my eyesight has gotten worse (mostly my own fault though lol).

Stanza isn't bad but the screen size and the fact I'm using my phone battery (I also listen to music with it) kinda puts me off a bit. It dies quickly enough as it is. If I make the font bigger then I have to flip more pages and that irritates me too. Also, formatting can be a bitch :\

I looked at it at Best Buy a few hours ago and I actually would prefer the 6" one but the 5" ereader is a lot more portable. I'll have to give it some more thought, but thanks for your input :Db!
