Due to increasing eyestrain, I just sold my beloved Sony 505 on ebay and plan to get the larger 950.

Why the 950? During my in-store evaluations of the Kindles and Sony 650/950 units, I brought some demo files to test on the Sonys.

Bottom line - I had a graphic heavy pdf file that was converted to LRF format using the hard to find pdflrfwin software. The resulting quality on the 950 was incredible!!!

I can't wait to get more $$$ from the upcoming holiday season to buy the new Sony....

I also plan to get the BookArmor case. The one I had for the 505 was the strongest and lightest case I've ever seen..

Now -- if we can get some menu, font, application, and other "new tricks" for the 950 -- THAT would be wonderful.
