I am so REDDY!!!

After an arduous process of elimination game (and actually touching devices) I made the big leap to the Sony PRS-505 in RED. It was the only color available and I want to make it perfectly clear that my 505 is NOT Ferrari RED, but Red Sox RED!! I got a smokin' deal and opted for the cover & lightwedge as well.

I'm currently charging and studying the Start Guide while I await the 3rd practice for the GP of Monaco...and maybe qualifying. The light is still RED, but I know by tomorrow I'll be ready to rock!!

Cheers!

Gratz on the new reader. You will absolutely love it!

I see I will have new competition at the Greater Phoenix Area Library for checking out books. (I am from Mesa, AZ) Sigh..........

(Make sure to look at the library ebooks. They have TONS avail for checkout)

Enjoy!

Aren't you feeling a little blue that your red light is still on??

Can't wait until you get up and running! Congrats on your new purchase

Congrats on your new 505. I have the *BLUE* one and LOVE it. I take it everywhere with me.

Humm.. NOT Ferrari Red. Does that have anything to do with this.. ?.... " The silence at McLaren added to the weird theatre. The voice of Ron Dennis, which for so long carried the fight to the FIA on behalf of the teams, is no longer a feature of this parish. Ferrari are the new radicals. Nothing adds up."

Are you as BLUE as the BMW team? IMO it's out with the old and in with the new!!

Not an F1 driver, not there this year, but never know what the future may hold. My hands will be holding a RED 505, though!

<"We have been struggling for a long time," said Kubica. "This is not a problem that was born two days ago. "We want a miracle to happen but I don't think they happen so often, especially when we're talking about the performance in F1. >


<Kubica remained hopeful that BMW could take inspiration from Ferrari and McLaren, who were well off the pace of front runners Brawn Grand Prix in the opening races, and turn around their performance on track in the coming races.>

OK, not really following this year but, interesting to see what happens and who is still in for next year with the new $ cap.

US F1 team(s)!!! And the hope of a N. American return!!! Increase budget cap and/or get rid of Bernie/Max or F1 may turn into the international IRL.

The color red is used by fast food restaurants like McDonalds to make people feel anxious so they leave faster. Of course I'm not saying people with red readers are like the food at McDonalds (cheap and disgusting ), but some people in this world are very quick to make judgments about others...

p.s. I recently got a silver

Ah, silver is good, but are you sure yours is not chrome?

RED:
RED is hot. It's a strong color that conjures up a range of seemingly conflicting emotions from passionate love to violence and warfare. RED is Cupid and the Devil. A stimulant, red is the hottest of the warm colors. RED can have a physical effect, increasing the rate of respiration and raising blood pressure. The expression seeing RED indicates anger and may stem not only from the stimulus of the color but from the natural flush (REDness) of the cheeks, a physical reaction to anger, increased blood pressure, or physical exertion. RED is power, hence the RED power tie for business people and the RED carpet for celebrities and VIPs. In some cultures, RED denotes purity, joy, and celebration. RED is the color of happiness and prosperity in China and may be used to attract good luck. RED is often the color worn by brides in the East while it is the color of mourning in South Africa. Many national flags use RED. Use the color RED to grab attention and to get people to take action. Use RED when you don't want to sink into the background. Use RED to suggest speed combined with confidence and perhaps even a dash of danger. A little bit of RED goes a long way.
