I see the chipin page is specifically about the PRS-505 to port his modifications.
Why the mention of the Cybook and Kindle in the thread title? |

Likewise done. In fact, I was one of the first few to donate. This is a great idea, and I hope that many of you will support it!

Currently we have a grand total of $94. I'm hoping we get enough to either get him a 505. This is good till Nov 3. I have yet to chip in. But I will later in October after bill day and I know my finances.

Over 100%!
I see we passed the 100% mark. What happens to the excess funds? Beer money?

Perhaps shipping and insurance. Maybe a start on a new Reader for Jon.

There is shipping. I'm not yet sure who to order a reader through just yet. But I have till sometime this week to order one. And remember, there is the paypal fees that come out. So that lowers the amount actually in hand. Plus if I was to roder via Sony, I'd also have to pay tax.
