Sony debuts thin and light PRS-T3 Reader

Sony hasn’t given up on the eReader market yet with the new $129.99 PRS-T3 Reader. Boasting to be the only eReader with its own protective snap cover, the PRS-T3 is as thin as a pencil and as big as a small paperback. It still has a higher resolution, paper-like screen than will make reading for hours an enjoyable, flicker-free experience. With built-in Wi-Fi, you can download those must-read books easily into the device. And since it is equipped with Sony’s Quick Charge feature, just plugging it in for three minutes allows you to read an entire model. This eReader will be available this month at Sony Store locations and participating retailers nationwide.
