I'm not seeing the link on the waterstones pages anymore, prehaps it was a limited offer.
I can say that my PRS 505 turned up thursday, box was obviously used and slightly shabby looking around the edges and corners, but the unit itself is immaculate, in the standard 505 tan cover, with Reader library software v2.3, Adobe Digital Editions software and user manual on a CD, with a seperate CD of 100 Classicswhich I've not looked at - if I remember rightly the versions submitted to this site of these books by contributors are better laid out.
I logged in to the US Sony reader store site (as that is what was setup with my 500) and they gave me the option redownload all my purchases in ePUB format which I then added to my 505.
My intention now is to use the latest version of Calibre on my laptop rather than my PC instead of using the Reader Library software.
So far so good, no complaints at all, shame the link on Waterstones site didn't last long, I was thinking of getting another as a back up. ah well.
