I bought a Sony PRS-650 at the Sony Centre at Chatswood (Sydney) last night. The online store was showing no stock, so I rang the store and asked them if they had any red ones in stock because Sony is the only place you can get the red ones. The guy said they had them in stock. I drove over there (45 minutes) and when I got there the only red ones they had were two display models that had been in the window.
I bought one anyway because it still looked brand new and nobody had played with it because it was in the window. I really wanted the red one and thought the other Sony stores probably wouldn't have one either.
They also had the cases and the online store was showing them as out of stock as well. I bought the red one with the light.
So far I am really thrilled with it, except that they had cleared the memory on it before they packed it back in the box, so there were no files on it at all. I know it should have had the user manual etc on it, but I am not sure if anything else should have been on there. Can anyone tell me what theirs had? Did it have any pictures for the standby screen or music or anything? Mine was completely empty. I hate that! I like to save whatever originally was on a device so that if I sell it later I can restore it to how it was when new.
