Performance Recap: Sony Presents Lee DeWyze at the P.C. Richard & Son Theater

Posted by Allison L. on November 12, 2010 at 10:28 am

Fans were treated to a very special performance from Lee DeWyze at the P.C. Richard & Son Theater last night! Lee put on a very powerful performance and debuted brand-new songs off his new album, Live It Up. I went behind the scenes with the Sony Bloggie Touch camera/camcorder to show you the entire production from the start!

Fans were lined up outside 32 Avenue of the Americas from before I got there. Lee mentioned during his performance how touched he was to see the fans standing outside so early; by the time he had arrived at the theater four hours before the show, even more fans had shown up.

Great for Students: The Sony Reader PRS-600

Posted by Allison L. on July 15, 2010 at 10:55 am

We’ve talked about Sony Readers on this blog before, including their benefit for the environment, and how convenient they are, and what they’re capable of. Have you tried one out yet? They’re perfect for campus. If you or someone you know is going off to school, consider getting the perfect e-reader for students: the Sony Reader PRS-600, pictured right.

Now you may be saying, “I have an iPod/iPad that I can download books to, so why bother?” right? That may be true, but if you’re actually reading something on that screen, how long does the battery last you? Your library study session may be cut short due to a dead battery with the iPad. With the Sony Reader, not only do they not require power to maintain a static image, but you can get up to two straight weeks (or 7,500 continuous page turns) of glorious, uninterrupted charge.

Save Trees and Get Your Read On with a Sony Reader

Posted by Allison L. on May 14, 2010 at 13:07 pm

More and more people are starting to adopt downloading digital books for a greener and more portable reading experience. Sony Readers are one of the leading electronics for reading digital books, periodicals and documents. They use E-Ink screen technology for a paper-like display that’s viewable in direct sunlight, which makes them great for vacations. They require no power to maintain a static image, so you can read the same page for hours without sucking any battery life. They’re convenient with Sony’s iTunes-like Sony Connect e-store, and can display PDFs, ePubs, personal documents, and more. Hundreds of thousands of free public domain books are available from Google Books, and libraries are also beginning to carry digital copies of books.

Sounds great, right? Why carry a heavy book around when you can slip a Sony Reader with 300 books right in your pocket? But with three different types available from P.C. Richard & Son, which one is the best for you? We’re breaking down each version for you so you know exactly which one will suit your needs.
