Digital camera reviews of Sony PRS-505/LC Blue Digital Book Reader

Digital camera Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars

I think this is an awesome product. It is a little bit of a pain to edit existing PDF metadata when you add them to the reader.

I found Calibre is pretty good for editing everything I need.

Also, if you get this, you should know that you can download for free all the classics. If it doesnt have a copyright, like Bram Stoker's Dracula, Charles Dickens, etc... you can easily add them for free from the Sony Store within the software.

That part seems to get overlooked a lot. 500,000 free books! Yay!
