If you love reading like I do, how about a device that allows you to have a number of stored material without having to lug around so many books? Sony just did it with their Portable Reading System.  The PRS-500 is thin and light at 1/2″ thick, weighing about 9 ounces.

This will introduce a new way to experience reading with a 6″ screen and E Ink® technology making the pages you read paper-like. You can magnify the text, illuminate it when it’s dark and view it at different angles. 

Along with its portability, it has 64 MB of storage, allowing you to hold up to 80 electronic books.  If that isn’t enough, the expandable memory slot allows you to get more memory, so you can definately hold tons more. Also, the Sony® Reader can give you thousands of material to choose from because it allows you to search and browse through popular electronic books. You can get the titles from the CONNECTâ„¢ eBook online store, but you won’t be limited to these files, you can definately upload your PDF files!

I wish I had this during college…oh by the way, it’s also energy efficient with great battery life. Price? Only $300 bucks after your $50 rebate.
