Question Longmont/Boulder, CO - want to see Kindle 2 or HanlinV3/BeBook/EZ-Reader or Sony 505

Is anyone in North Colorado area (around Longmont/Boulder) ? I am interested in seeing in action a Kindle 2 and/or Hanlin V3 (or BeBook or Astrak EZ Reader) and/or a Sony PRS-505 device.

I don't have an ereader at the moment, but will be happy to buy you a coffee

Thanks !

Rana, if you get down to the Denver Tech Center area, I have a K2 I'd be happy to show you. Unfortunately, I don't get up your way very often.

Thanks Amber ! I will definitely let you know if I am heading that way. I don't go to Denver downtown area often, but do drive by DTC once in a while.

Thanks !

I would also like to see anything that's around to be seen along the Colorado Front Range. Amber, I've PM'd you about coming down south

I can bring an iPhone and an EEE pc (linux) for show and tell, and I'm also happy to buy the coffee!

Anyone in Santa Cruz, California?

I'm interested in taking a look at the Sony PRS-700 and see how well it deals with journal articles in PDF format. I'd be happy to buy you coffee/tea/chai etc. :-)

I only have bike and bus transportation so I can only be in and around Santa Cruz area. Thanks!

Try getting out of Carrollton, Texas in real life, as opposed to virtually! Easiest place to get lost in I've ever been. And yes, there is a Paris, Texas - I have a cousin who lives there.
