Proof the Sony Reader Wi-Fi Runs Android, Let the Rooting Begin
I managed to snag a new Sony Reader PRS-T1 at Target this morning. The first thing I wanted to do was find out whether or not the Reader Wi-Fi runs Android as the rumors suggest. After using the Reader Wi-Fi for a few minutes it becomes obvious that it does indeed have Android under the […]
New Sony Reader Spotted, the PRS-G1 with 3G Wireless
Remember a couple of weeks back when I posted about it being very likely that Sony could release another ebook reader or two to go along with the new PRS-T1? Well, it looks like that is certainly true, at least in Japan. A 3G version of the new Sony Reader has turned up on Sony […]
