    I honestly never wanted an eReader. I'm a huge reader, I have hundreds of books, and I have been reading ever since I was little. I'm the only reader in the family so my family loves to give me lots of reading related gifts (usually a hit with me). When the eReaders and Kindles and stuff came out I instantly decided I preferred the real thing. It's just a preference for me. I also have glasses as I have a hard time seeing close up, and I struggle more so with screens. I end up with bad eye strain. Anyway, my mother purchased the Sony eReader for me one Christmas and I tried to like it. I downloaded a few books, I played around with the (pretty crappy) wifi... Turns out I just don't like eReaders. But this eReader is a pretty basic, low price eReader to start with. No backlight, the wifi loads really grey hard to read pages and really can't handle much. Not to mention that a little while ago they got rid of the Sony Reader for PC, which was the interface for a lot of downloading and management of the software. They replaced it with Kobo Reader I think, but then why not go get a Kobo instead?
