Is this accurate? (Borders question)
I live in Canada and I received a 505 for Christmas from my husband. Obviously we can't buy books from the Connect store from here. My parents are currently in Florida (St. Petersburg) and my Mom went to Borders today to try to get some Connect gift cards for me. She was told by the employee that the cards are only available online. The employee confirmed this with her manager. Is this true?

I was in Borders on Sunday and I could swear I saw Sony gift cards in the locked display with the Sony PRS 505s.....

I am very disappointed as I was really hoping that my parents would be able to get me some cards so that I could continue to purchase books. |

Will they let you use their address for your credit card? 'Cause that would work.

You could have them pick up some gift cards for you from SonyStyle.
