It took me a week to discover that I could turn pages in the Sony PRS-T1 eBook reader by swiping my finger right to move a page forward, or left to move a page back. My natural instinct was just to press the side of the page, as you can on an iPad, to...

Sony's latest claims to be the world's lightest e-book reader, and at just 168g it's very hard to beat -- even The Simpsons' Mr Burns could get through War and Peace without wearing himself out. At £130 it's a fair few quid more expensive than Amazon's...

Amazon's Kindle has become synonymous with ereaders in a manner reminiscent of iPod domination of MP3 player land. But there are others out there, with much to give. There's Kobo, there's iRiver - but the best of the rest is Sony. Its latest Reader PRS-T1...

The Sony Reader Wi-Fi PRS-T1's core specs are on a par with those of the other big eReaders, too. In spite of this model's handy buttons, however, it stumbles in overall usability and navigation. The Reader Wi-Fi carries a competitive price of £130. On...
