Sony e-book reader

But just as camera phones have not replaced digital cameras, smartphones are not likely to replace dedicated e-book readers like the Kindle or the reader from Sony, analysts said.

分析者认为，因为带摄像头的手机还未完全取代数码相机，职能手机也不一定能取代像“点燃”和索尼阅读器这样的电子书阅读器。

Those devices and e-book libraries aren’t gathering dust, either, according to a recent survey from Marketing and Research Resources, Inc. that was sponsored by Sony, an e-reader competitor.

电子阅读器方面的竞争对手之一SONY最近赞助了市场研究资源公司的一项调查，得出的结论是：这些阅读器设备和电子书们在出售后也并未被束之高阁徒蒙尘土。

New gizmos (iPods, PDAs, e-readers, etc) fecilitating ‘anywhere reading’ have provided with much impetus. Sony Reader, Sony’s pint-sized e-book reader broke open the e-book market.

新科技发明（iPods, PDAs, e-readers, 等等）已经为实时阅读提供了更多的支持，一个例证就是Sony Reader已经打开了电子图书的市场。
