Portable ebook readers were originally not a big seller since they were difficult to use and did not have large selection of reading material available. The typical reader was large and bulky. The reading screen was black with green text. All that has changed due to the simplicity of such ebook readers as Kindle and Sony. Still, ebook readers are fairly expensive so the increased number of users of the technology means that the benefits offset the downside. Today, you can purchase lightweight readers with easy to read pages that can be turned at the touch of a button.

Holding one of the small, lightweight readers is no more onerous than holding a single book and the font can be adjusted to the optimum size for ease in viewing. At least one model recently released features a touch screen. Most people purchase a portable ebook reader just for the convenience of having a book available to read during the spare moments that otherwise might be wasted.
