I got my 505 today
And, I want to thank everyone on this site for making this place a seriously valuable resource. I've already purchased a PSP AC power adapter and a battery powered adapter based on recommendations in threads on this site.

Wow, another one! Congratulations, hope you enjoy the reader. Incidentally, and just out of curiosity, has anyone noticed how many new "got my reader" posts there have been lately? Can the same be said in the Kindle's and other forums? I don't really hang out over there, so I'm just curious.

I looked at everything available before I bought the 505. The fact that calibre allows you to convert so many other formats, and an unnamed tool allows you to deDRM others, it seemed like the 505 way my best bet. I don't mind spending money for content, but I don't like being limited by the format. Anyway, it looks like there is enough quality content to keep me happy for at least a couple of years.

I also love my new Reader (purchased in the last month). Absolutely no regrets on my choice of device. Calibre is really the clincher, though.. makes everything a breeze. Also look into the titanium e-caddy hard case sold for the 505 on ebay and amazon, if you have any concerns about the Reader being banged around in your bag. I really like mine.

Congratulations! I love my Kindle and many who have Sony Readers say the same. Having a convenient way to carry and read books -- and a decent selections of good books to buy -- is what really matters to me.
Have fun and let us know what books you're reading. |
