Ebook reader recommendations

[thunderlizard]

I want to read a book that costs about £800 in print, but is out of copyright and on t'web. So time to buy an ebook reader.

I'd prefer one that's easy on the eye, ideally with searchability.

Suggestions lovingly received.

ebookers - no that's not right...

I use Stanza on the iPhone. It's free. Never read ebooks on the PC.

The Sony PRS-505 is a steal at £150 on Play.com at the moment: http://www.play.com/Electronics/Elec...r/Product.html

I had a play with one in Waterstones the other day - nice piece of kit.

i'm seriously thinking about buying one of these as I get through tons of books while working away.

Where can I buy book titles from?
Is it possible to get the latest titles? if so, how much are they?

The PRS-300 is less glarey and £100 cheaper than the PRS-600 so I got that one in the end.
