I checked a couple of days ago at my local borders and they were out of stock. I just looked online and it is stating that it is on backorder.

Reading this makes me feel a little bit less alone. I wanted to buy a PRS 650 for Christmas, but couldn't find one anywhere. Rang Sony in Sydney and Melbourne, and even in Wellington, NZ, where my son lives. No luck. Orders are backdated until January/February.
I couldn't work out why, but the explanation about the screens makes sense. Not happy about it, but what can't be changed has to be accepted, I guess. |

Er, not that I mean to rub it in anybody's faces here. I just think most people can't go wrong, when they finally do find one, with picking up one of these Readers. Good luck to all that are looking. (As an aside, I do know for certain that some David Jones and Myer stores in Sydney had a few 350s in stock as of a few days ago -- at least the ones in Parramatta did. The 650 continues to be elusive though.) |

I found a store in Texas that shows online it has them in stock. I asked someone to go pick it up today after work, fingers crossed please!
--- My ... potential mother-in-law (lol) got me the last one within 100 miles of her house. It was red, too! I am SO happy!!! Happy New Year, guys. I. Last edited by Ivy; 12-31-2010 at 03:40 PM. |

I noticed that the Dell website has some. A few Canadian sites had them as well although I don't think a lot of them. Most of the retail stores are sold out.

Maybe I see them since I start at the canadian site? They show a us phone number though. They are out of black ones though but do have silver and red.

Is it possible that they will launch a new Wifi version with their Reader app and store sync?

A Wifi version of the 650? Doubtful.
