K3 Wifi + 3G in stock at local Best Buy

jswinden · 09-23-2010, 02:52 PM

I saw today that my local Best Buy had 7 or 8 K3 Wifi + 3G in stock. The demo is no longer looking so lonely. I didn't see any accessories though or any of the K3 WiFi only models.

I've got two Best Buys within 3 miles of my home and they are about 5 miles apart from each other. The Arlington store has the K3 demo and a few Amazon covers, but that is all. The Mansfield store has the K3 demo and a few K3 WiFi + 3G units, but that is all. I guess they will eventually carry verything in both stores! I wonder if the store will only have the 3G models?

i was just at the Best Buy in Emeryville CA last night and they had 2 Kindle 3's in stock plus two demo units..and they also had ONE Sony prs-350, which I bought..

I already have the K3 (got it from amazon a week ago).

Not sure what I'll end up keeping. The K3 is very nice, but feels unbalanced in my hand for reading one handed and trying to turn pages. The Sony 350 is a dream ergonomically, I also find the Sony font a lot easier on my eyes than the K3. The K3 however has wifi and 3g and I actually think the web browser works pretty well..The Sony has no wifi or web..

The Sony DOES have a beautiful Pearl screen that looks slightly better than the K3 and it has touch screen UI which I prefer. Oh...such a tough decision..
