Good catch Yvan; my comment was a statement of opinion, not a statement of fact. I'm basing this opinion on:
- Reports of the frailty of the Sony Readers on this site and others I've read.
- The fact that Amazon goes out of its way to highlight the durability of the Kindle by showing it being dropped intentionally.
It may be that both counts are wrong... I hope at least the first one is, as I'm supposed to be receiving my 505 later today. (Yay!)
