Sony reader wifi prs t1 kaufen




















It does come in three colors black, red, and white. The Reader Wi-Fi retains the responsive touch screen of its predecessors and, as the name suggests, adds Wi-Fi. And unlike the Nook Touch, the Sony has support for audio--though not audiobooks, apparently. In all, it's a very solid e-reader. Design and features While the Reader Wi-Fi is essentially a redesigned version of last year's PRS , the new model has an all-new chassis and weighs less, partially due to an all-plastic, rather than metal, casing.

In fact, at 5. Overall, the Reader Wi-Fi has an elegant, classy look, and we liked the design. Our only real complaint was that the glossy finish on the border around the touch screen think of the finish on the original PS3 shows fingerprints, at least on the black model we reviewed; we suspect the white version won't show the fingerprints as much.

This isn't a huge deal, but it's worth noting. Because that technology uses infrared sensors to register touch gestures on screen, it's allowed e-reader manufacturers to make touch-screen interfaces without adding an extra screen layer that would reduce contrast.

The Reader Wi-Fi brings along that same touch-screen technology and looks and feels more similar to the Kobo Touch than to the new Nook, which has rounded corners and is a little wider because it has "hard" page-turn buttons on the sides of the screen. As you can see, the Reader Wi-Fi's hard buttons are along the bottom of the screen. With Wi-Fi now aboard and the inclusion of a microSD card slot for expanding beyond the built-in 2GB of memory, the Reader Wi-Fi is on par with its competitors from a specs perspective.

The Reader Wi-Fi's one bonus feature is the inclusion of audio support, which means you can listen to music while you read--a notable upgrade from the no-audio Nook and Kobo models. The touch screen on previous Sony Readers worked very well, and Sony is letting users choose between using their fingers or an included stylus to take notes and handle highlighting alas, there's no storage slot for the stylus built into the device like there was on the PRS, so you'll have to be careful not to lose it.

Protective cases with or without reading lights will also be available, but a case doesn't come with the device. While the touch screen may not be quite as responsive as that of the iPhone due to the slightly laggy nature of e-ink , as we've said before, this type of interface is ideal for e-readers because it allows the designers to cut down on buttons and whittle the device down to just slightly bigger than the screen itself.

It also allows you to type on a virtual keyboard when searching, note taking, and entering URLs into the browser. The touch screen isn't just for navigation--you can also mark up text with the included stylus, jot down notes you can use the virtual keyboard or the stylus for handwritten notes , and turn pages with the swipe of a finger. We also liked how you could hold your finger down on a word to bring up its definition in the built-in dictionaries there are 2 English-language and 10 translation dictionaries.

Better yet, beyond the dictionary definition, you now also have the option to look the word up in Google or Wikipedia using the device's built-in Web browser. Sony has always touted its Readers as being more "open" than Amazon's Kindles, and that trait continues with this model. That means it's compatible with any e-book store that uses the Adobe DRM format, including e-bookstores in Europe and Asia.

That said, as far as we can tell, there's no support for audiobooks unless you can find them in one of those non-copyrighted formats. The Reader Wi-Fi is also designed with easy library-lending access in mind, with a dedicated icon offering access to free library book downloads--if you have a valid local library card, of course.

It also offers easy access to the large library of free Google Books, though the interface is slow, and that content mostly duplicates the free pre classic texts you can already get in Sony's store and as EPUB files elsewhere. It's also worth mentioning that while Sony now has an Android app for reading e-books you buy in the Sony Reader Store, it still hasn't gotten its Reader app approved by Apple why not is unclear , so you can't read your Sony-bought e-books on iOS devices.

In other words, the text on the screen looks exactly like it did on the previous Readers--it looks good, but don't expect any improvements in contrast or sharpness.

The Sony Reader does offer pinch-to-zoom support, and it works, but don't expect smooth, iPad-style performance, thanks again to the limitations of the e-ink screen. As with all e-ink, it's easy to read in bright light, as it doesn't get washed out in direct sunlight like LCD does, but since the screen isn't backlit, you do need some light source to read.

One of the other benefits of e-ink is that it's very energy-efficient. Sony says you can get up to five weeks of use from the device based on 30 minutes' worth of reading a day and with the Wi-Fi turned off, which is an improvement over the PRS I'm having the same issue and none of the solutions seem to work either.

Since this thread and similary ones haven't been active for a few months, is there any change for a miracle solution I overlooked? The lesson to learn is I rooted a previous T1 and it ended up bricked I had to fast-talk a friendly tech in the local sony store to wipe the thing clean and restore the firmware so be warned!!!! Sorry I meant to add to the above I had that problem once and it turned out that the stored password had got trashed Originally Posted by bla.

Thanks for the suggestion, though. Are you sure everything is ok at the router end? It seems strange that it is not even detecting the network.. I get 5 "bars" wifi strength on my laptop but only about 2 on the T1 at the same location but unless you have physically damaged your device a firmware restore should fix it..

Will it connect to any free wifi in another area? You might double check that your home wifi isn't set up with a whitelist that only allows specific MAC addresses to connect. If the reader's MAC address isn't in the approved list of connections to allow, I don't think it even shows the connection then as yours is doing. Originally Posted by Ashjuk.
