Sold out...

'Sold out online' - doesn't it mean they're still selling in stores?

I doubt that a one-day sale is liable to rain checks.
And what sucks the most is that this is the second sale that I'm missing just b/c I still can't decide between 505 and jetBook (the first one was jetBook for 189$ on NewEgg).

If it helps - and this is just my opinion - I think the 505 will have the most lasting power. I think the format will be stable for a while to come. But that is just my opinion. I almost got one yesterday at Best Buy, but just got a laptop for reading instead. Eye problems are forcing me to search for larger and larger fonts.

Power is one thing, I'm more concerned about the size... jetBook fits in a pocket which is very good, but I still can't decide if 1 inch difference in displays matters to my eyes.
Thanks for you input though

My 505 fits in some pockets, generally coat pockets, without a problem. Definitely doesn't fit in my pants pockets . But more importantly -- especially as I wouldn't want to carry my 505 in a pant pocket for comfort reasons if no other -- it easily fits in a waist pack, which is what I use when I'm not wearing a coat.

I like my jetBook (I have it for 6 month already) and I can recommend it for people who need real pocket size unit with good quality screen.
