EBooks and EReaders

Sony Corp. (NYSE:SNE) has launched three new e-book readers to compete with Apple Inc.’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPad and Amazon.com, Inc.’s (NASDAQ:AMZN) Kindle.
Sony’s three new e-readers will only be available in the US. The Pocket Edition is equipped with a 5-inch screen with a display much like the Kindle, and is priced at $179.99.
The Touch Edition has a 6-inch screen, a higher display and memory card slots, and is priced at $229.99. The Daily Edition allows users to download books via Wi-Fi and the AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) 3G phone network, reports the Telegraph. The Daily Edition also boasts a slimmer frame, upped battery life and more storage at the price of $299.99.

Steve Haber, president of Sony’s digital reading unit said, “Lowering prices to get cheaper and cheaper is not our direction, Our plan is not to race to the bottom.”

The Kindle 3G costs about $189 and a 16GB Wi-Fi iPad costs $499.

SmarTrend currently has Sony in a Downtrend.

Since 2008, SmarTrend subscribers trading Sony using our alerts outperformed the stock by 159%.

We are monitoring these developments and will alert subscribers to any change in trend.

Choose your ebook

The nice thing about eReaders is they allow you to carry a large library of reading material in a package weighing less than a single book.

The next item to consider is whether you want your eReader to allow you to download eBooks wirelessly at any time.

If you do, then you definitely want to consider the Kindle, Nook, and potentially the iPad.

If you do not, or do not care, then you can optionally consider the Sony Digital Readers as well.

The Sony eReaders do not have any type of wireless connection built in, meaning you have to sync your books from your PC.

The screen type is the first important thing to choose.

Of the bunch, the Apple iPad is the only one that has a full color screen.

It is the fastest to refresh and has the greatest resolution of the bunch.

If you’re considering an eReader with an e-ink screen (such as the Kindle, Nook, or Digital Reader), you will want to take into account the screen size.

If you’re looking for a multi-function device, you should definitely look closely at the Apple iPad.

Because of its hardware and screen, it has the ability to perform a number of functions typically not handled by eReaders: Music, Videos, Pictures, Audiobooks, Graphical Web Browsing.
