Prices are reduced very intensively. All 505s are sold out, some 600s are left.
And many many 300s. Though having a very good price.
There are only the pink ones to get!
The reason to choose the dark blue housing is not only my taste, it is to improve the contrasts on the screen! I often see, especially at the white Readers, the e-ink-screen looks dark, dirty und misty. But not so on dark devices.
Wishing you lots of fun with your "HannaMontana/Unicorn/HelloKitty-Readers"...  |
Thread is a bit old, but I just discovered it...too good !
I too ordered the dark blue one at sonystyle.de BECAUSE the pink was not available. Turns out the dark blue is not either (I've been waiting 7 days for a shipping notice, since it is officially "available / on stock" on the site since Sep 23rd, but nothing, and the hotline is clueless at best).
So I just cancelled my order and ordered a pink one from a US vendor instead (the $ / € exchange rate was a kick, I must say). I might end up having to pay a bit more (with taxes and fees) but not much, and it should be here next week (as opposed to "it'll leave the warehouse tomorrow" which I've been hearing from Sony for a week now...
).
My mom has my 300 pink, she loves it, and many friends of hers liked it too and ended up buying it. So I would not say that pink is not working. It might not be in anymore in some months though...purple and orange are the new pink I heard
