Sony recently announced the new Sony Portable Reader System, the PRS-700, which will retail for $399. The new e-book reader is an addition to Sony’s already existing line of readers.

The PRS-700 has new features not present in other models. For example, it has a touch screen that allows readers to swipe their finger in order to turn pages. This is a nifty way of turning virtual pages and is more intuitive and natural. LED side lights have also been added to the screen to make reading easier in low light conditions.
