NIV eBible Tops for New Sony Reader

In its version of a literary sequel, Sony Electronics is taking the cover off a new edition of its Reader Digital Book. The new Reader (model PRS-505) features a svelte body design and is available in two colors- silver and dark blue. Re-styled controls more closely mimic paper page turns and allow for quick, intuitive navigation. A next-generation electronic paper display delivers faster response and a higher contrast ratio for easy reading even in bright sunshine. Eight levels of gray scale provide for crisp and clear text, images, and graphics. Since Sony's launch of the CONNECT eBooks Store last year, the number of downloadable eBooks offered has expanded to more than 20,000 titles with new ones added weekly. The NIV Holy Bible quickly rose to the top of the eBook store's bestseller list after it was added to the collection.
