love my Sony prs-650

ValH · 11-20-2010, 12:53 PM

Hi everyone
I have been a lurker here for quite some time. Lurker is such a strange word to use, lets say admirer from a far

I have had the Sony 505 for a couple of years now and have wanted to upgrade. I took advantage of the B&H deal for the 650. Great deal by the way at $169.99. Love the touchscreen, the text is very clear and having a dictionary is great.
I have saved so much money being able to loan ebooks from the library, I am in CA so I have numerous choices of public libraries I can use.
Just wanted to thank everyone here for all the great advice and information about e-readers. I have learned so much!
I will try to come out of the shadows more often.

Lucky One !
Great discount for 650 and big choice of libraries.

I love my 650 although it was somewhat more expensive.

Mine too. Curse my early-adopterness!

I paid full price right away, too; but, that kind of a drop so fast really couldn't have been expected
I don't think?

Totally agree.
Normally it took some time. Even special events normally didn't see such a drop

You never know with pricing. I was very surprised to see the price come down so much so soon. It's great to see the prices becoming reasonable, the more people that can afford e-readers, the better for all of us.
