Amazon Kindle vs. Sony Reader: Sizemodo and Interface Comparison (Gallery)
During the past week, many readers have asked us to compare the physical traits of the second-gen Sony Reader and the all-new Amazon Kindle. (If you feel a bit behind, catch up by reading our full Amazon Kindle review and verdict from last Friday.) The Sony Reader is much smaller, and weighs three ounces less than the Kindle, but the screens are exactly the same size, and use the same E-Ink technology. They have more or less the same comfort advantage over LCDs and other glowing screens—and of course, they have no backlight.

I can’t wait to see some Australian content on the Kindle. Even better journals. This would make it invaluable for students. How long do you think it will be before it seriously hits Australian shores?
I would love to purchase a Kindle but US prices are way too high – especially their postage! Will we ever see the Kindle on sale here at anj Aussie price?
How about it Amazon? You enjoy the amount of business you do here so how about returning the compliment and swooshing a hit load of Kindles to Melbourne for sale to Oz types. Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!!!!
