Be patient......and don't forget, Public Domain books are free
Also still cheaper than buying a New Release Hardcover in a bookstore.

I'm pretty sure they will have that ability....just instead of getting it wirelessly we would have to plug it in which I am quite ok with....Wireless eats battery.

Whole different technology here, like an iPod one spends $300 for, I didn't buy it to be a netbook, I bought it to listen to music, I bought my Reader to read books

Despite all this, it is a gorgeous technology and will save me from carrying loads of printed articles and hardcover books.

If it does what you bought it to do, and does it well, does that mean because a newer version of it released it is now worthless? Besides Sony updates these once a year.

It's funny, I usually think the complete opposite. If I pay the extra for the quicker shipping, I don't want to come home to a note saying 1st attempt, that defeats the purpose of paying extra for quicker shipping, no?
